[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 582643, member: 1550"] I personally believe that the first "entitlement" that should be cut is the paychecks and healthcare of our losers in Washington Difficult Child...ALL OF THEM. Wonder how long this would last if they weren't getting paid and had their healthcare suspended. ARen't we ALL supposed to share the pain??? Hmmmmmmm....I actually thought I heard that the Senate just got a RAISE and this was knowing what the rest of the country was going to be facing. I could be wrong with that, but I swear I did hear that. What a crock pot, Know what I mean?? TM, you're right. At one time, though, our elected officials WERE called our public servants too because they were supposed to be working for us. Bahahahahaha! That wouldn't apply any longer. Our idiot govenor was one of them who turned down Medicaid, which our family will really need so we may move to a saner state, at least if this clown is still in office. It's not like companies are really handing out good benefits these days, if any. We NEED Medicaid and I don't particularly feel that getting sick care is an entitlement either. Or it shouldn't be. Nobody gets sick on purpose. I am wondering how badly transportation will suffer. We don't have much here, but I know the folks in big cities depend on public transportation a lot. On another note, it's ironic that Head Start will be cut. At least it is for me. Maybe I would have been out of a job even without Ms. X. After all, if they have to cut, little by little, the bus drivers and their aides would go first and the parents would have to drive their kids to school. Too bad...I still have many friends there and I feel sorry for the kids if the program is completely destroyed. It's not perfect, but it sure beats nothing. [/QUOTE]
