Plenty of people work 2 jobs. I have a brother who has been doing it for 20 years. He also has a wife with MS and she receives SSI disability. Something wrong with that?
What is wrong with excepting help??

For me, asking for help was never an option. I was taught to stand on my own. Yes I am sure that some need help but refused to admit I couldn't do it on my own.

You say it like it is a failing to ask for/accept help.

It is for me, but your right that I shouldn't put that standard on others.

Apart from Republicant recipients of farm subsidies in California, red-staters are the biggest welfare-takers in America.
The idea that only the educated (Read: Liberals) of our country favor big-government is inane; and serves only to illuminate the reliance of the right upon the braindead rhetoric it has adopted so faithfully, and the reason why conservatism has lost all meaning except for faith.
All of you Bushbot bitches should just STFU once and for all....
You've been wrong about virtually everything for years; defended all that is Big Brother, and actually became cheerleaders for torture and criminal ineptitude.
All for the Party?
How ridiculous.............You Fools.

Thank you, I have never asked for help except the chance to be successful.
