The plan doesn't hurt the poor, bad decisions do.
American poor live a pretty good life, cell phones flat screens and internet. It's good they have all these things as it keeps them busy while they sit home doing nothing.
Yes I want them to be a little uncomfortable, so they have some motivation to go find a better life with some personal responsibility.
As I drove to work Monday morning I see the remnants of black Friday sales. All the flat screen TV boxes in front houses I know are welfare houses. Tell me again how this plan is going to hurt the poor.
