This attitude of as long as I have what is mine you can go die for all I care sickens me. Some people act as if the fact that they have plenty to live does not mean that someday they or their sons or daughters will not need a safety net when things go south.The reason you don't get it is that it doesn't exist. The "constant attack" is an illusion perpetrated by the Left in order to prevent the Right's efforts at reforming these programs to make them an actual safety-net, rather than a vote-buying bonanza. All we really want is for that kind of support to be saved for people who actually need it, rather than splurged around as widely as they are now.
