Not everyone who is homeless got that way from fucking up their own finances. It's those people who make the homeless people out there who really and genuinely need funds because of hard times, not receive things from fortunate donors--not so much because they don't have it, but they assume all of them would waste it on liquor, drugs, whores, etc...Yes some of them are like that, I know and understand, but not most.

I agree. I feel the same way about Alcohol.

I take it, you were against Hilary Clintons plans for Univeral Healthcare in the 90s and in her '08 campaign?

Would have though that meant the opposite. Glad I'm in Canada and have good benefits so I don't have to worry about that.

Yeah, that's why a lot of people from the States hop over there because of your health benefits. At least we have one good place that borders us.

Not at all..... I wish the U.S. DID have free universal health care...Or at least affordable health care.
But it's not profitable to the government....so it will never happen.

I'd be ok with it IF I didn't lose my great health care for some form of Socialist medicine AND if my taxes weren't increased. I refuse to pay to provide care to those who don't want to get a job, granted that's not all of the uninsured, but to avoid paying for the louts I'd have to refuse to pay for anybody.

The Penguin was making a play on words.

i.e.

"Food money" is to "Money used to purchase food" as "Fucking money" is to "Money used to purchase sexual relations."

He was being purposely obtuse for the sake of humor, levity, or simply to derail the rube Posher.

I actually feel the same way about marijuana. Seriously. Legalize it. Control distribution. Stop wasting money on incarcerating recreational users. Go ahead and tax the SHIT out of it to help fund The State.
