Today’s Gimme, Gimme, Gimme Society

Just. Plain. Infuriating. 

Nearly 1 in 5 New Jersey households that received emergency food stamps after Tropical Storm Irene crashed into the state last year were ineligible for the benefits, a review found, the result of a mix of mistakes, confusion and fraud as some rushed to cash in what was a new program for the state.

Add this example to the long list of wasted dollars by government on a society that believes it’s entitled to other people’s money. And remember it the next time a liberal tells you that taxes must be raised because there’s just not enough money to take care of all our needs. Hogwash.
