help me understand who you think these "those" are, wouldja?

as for the comm breakdown, my objection was the introduction into the conversation of the word/concept "welfare". Screw. That. If I am working, if I'm driving a shovel or whatever, I'm working. If I work, I get paid. "welfare" doesn't freakin enter into it. Hire me. Pay me for my work. That's what these kinds of programs should be and are. It's not a benefits distribution program. It's work for hire.
Does that help?
