I would think that in a superpower that we live in, people should be entitled to not starve to death, get healthcare so they dont have to die of the flu due to not being able to afford treatment, and brave the cold weather in a warm bed with a roof over their head.

Conservatives and democrats alike love to group people together and assume they are all bad or good. Like calling all the poor lazy, or calling all the rich snobs.
The poor people of this country are not poor because they choose to be. Im sure everyone would love to be wealthy, or at least comfortable. However some of the hardest working people are considered poor these days. A good example of this is very close to my wife and I.
Jessicas uncle has 3 jobs. Two years ago he was diagnosed with stomach cancer, had to have an operation that took out half of his stomach, and get chemotherapy to get rid of the rest, a week after his surgery, he had to bike to work and to chemo to be able to continue to afford their house and insurance bills. They couldnt afford their house so they had to sell it. Well this past year, his wife was diagnosed with breast cancer, now she needs to go have surgery. They are not on welfare, they should be, but they are not. These people considered by mitt to be poor looking for a handout, are NOT looking for a handout, they are looking for a fucking break.

Mitts comments were heartless, and Elitist and i really hope people realize what hes saying in these comments, basically fuck the less fortunate. Its funny because in the 2008 race republicans were calling obama an Elitist, what happened to that? now you are proud of being elitist?
As far as your comment Chris, i really hope you dont feel that way, because that would make you as bad as this douche.
