    Sometimes I'm ashamed of the human race. Not a single one of you will ever see or notice a tax bill for this. Not only that, but you can't be happy for people who get something you didn't. Why can't people not be jealous and just be happy for others? It's not a competition. I'm happy for the people that don't have to do what I had to do- work two jobs and miss time with my oldest kid. There's way too much bad stuff to even worry about something like this.

    I’m tired of sharing my wealth with people who don’t share my work ethic or my effort. I will see a tax bill, we all will. This is taxpayer funded.

    I will go to work today, work hard, take care of my responsibilities, and be happy. At your request, I’ll be happy for those healthy freeloaders sitting at home drawing government assistance while open jobs go unfulfilled. I will be happy that they have what I don’t (free healthcare, free rent, free utilities, EBT, WIC, free college, etc).

    At some point we have to make people responsible for themselves. That’s how you build something special. What makes sports great is that those that work hard and achieve are the ones that thrive. We don’t pull a 20-year old out of the stands and let him play running back on Saturday over a guy who has spent hours and years in the weight room, conditioning, practice, etc. in order to finally earn a starting spot after 4 years in the program. Then decide to be happy for the kid who got to start despite never breaking a sweat or earning anything.

    I’m very happy to see people achieve. Im happy to see people work and earn and achieve their dreams. I’m not happy to see people get handed something that was forcibly taken from someone else, while listening to those same ones bitch that $10,000 isn’t enough.

    We are $30 trillion in debt. Obviously the way we are doing things ain’t working.
