Honestly, I dont get why we get so bent out of shape when poor - TopicsExpress



          

Honestly, I dont get why we get so bent out of shape when poor people try to scam the system for crumbs, while we just shrug our shoulders when billionaires and corporations scam us out of an entire cake. Is this one glitch going to break the tax-payers back any more than when AT&T shipped their call center jobs overseas? Or when Walmart pays there employees so low that they qualify for EBT cards, all while Americas largest employer enjoys generous tax shelters that encourages it to keep their employees on government assistance? Pennies on the dollar. Hell, not even a percentage of the expense of bailing out Bank of America after it still received record profits from evicting American homeowners and writing off the losses. So lets keep the vaults wide open for global economic scandals that put us in debt into the trillions while we blame the poor and the illegals for costing us mere millions. Its like we want to get personal and petty over missing pennies, yet not give a second thought to unaccounted for dollars. If I was trying to save an economy, I would focus on how to stop the greatest amount of losses first. It just seems to make sense to curb the greatest amount of waste that shows up in the books. In a triage where my goal would be to save lives and stop the most bleeding, I would focus on patients with missing limbs, not the ones with scraped knees.
