The Sharpton kid has had a "great" role model as a dad. Has nobody any common sense, any more????
We have the "Sharpton" types who live generation after generation off "entitlements"... corruption... working the system for all they can. OTOH, we have this Tea Party mantra from the GOP doing what they can to shove any who have fallen on hard times deeper into the gutter. Our illustrious Governor recently pushed legislation through that makes it extremely difficult for those on assistance programs to collect their money. The legislation is so bad, the Feds are threatening to cut off all participation in the State's social service programs. Shame the disadvantaged into leaving the State. If that doesn't work, push legislation through that is so ridiculous the Feds cut off assistance. That way, the disadvantaged will need to move to another state for help. Our recently elected City Commission, now wants SNAP cards... nutrition assistance program cards.... assistance that is to purchase food to help the disadvantaged feed their family... the commissioners want the SNAP cards to be able to be used at our local swimming pools. Since when does dropping kids off for a day of swimming qualify as "nutrition assistance"??!!??
The pendelum seems to swing hard left or hard right. If the left would assist in ferreting out the corrupt... like the Sharptons... and work to use programs for the truly needy, that would help. OTOH, if the right would assist in making sure dollars were there for the disadvantaged when they need it. Neither side wants to utilize the few brains God has blessed them with!!!!
