Riddle me this

Riddle me this:

When I go grub shopping for the boat I have a budget and spend every dime of it on grub. The money comes out of a grub allowance and we eat decently on it. 

So how come I see people pushing shopping carts that contain more expensive grub then we can afford paying for it with a government card?

Riddle me this:

So how come I get to replace my pickup every ten years yet pay enough in taxes every year to buy the government a pickup better than the one I drive?

Riddle me this:

So how come I come ashore after a tour and see people that haven't done a damned thing productive since I left that are living at least as well as I am, and in a lot of cases better.

Riddle me this:

So how come we're not motivating people to get up of of their asses and make something of themselves instead of rewarding failure?

Riddle me this:

So if how come every time I turn around and see people on government aid that has a much better cell phone than I can afford for myself. It's supposedly so they can find work yet they've had them for an awful long time and the overwhelming majority still haven't found jobs.

Riddle me this:

So how come so many people in this country spend so much time and effort to take money away from someone that has it and give it to someone that is too lazy or stupid to make their own?

Riddle me this:

So how come those people that are trying to take everyone else's money from them just don't take the time and effort they spend on it to make their own money to give to someone too lazy and stupid to make their own? With the effort you put into taking someone else's you could easily make your own.

Riddle me this:

So how come people in this country are punishing the majority for the crimes of a few.

  1. The answer to most of your questions are simple. You had the audacity to take charge of you life and provide for yourself. If you had decided to be a lazy ass, you could have had one of those government cards and a nice phone.

    Before my forced retirement, I could count the number of sick days I took on one hand and vacations on the other and have fingers left over. Now, being on disability, I still can't get the magic card. I guess I screwed up when I was young and developed a work ethic.

    My original injury happened while I was a Marine. I was medically discharged. I've spent the last 10 years trying to get the benefits I was promised when I enlisted. The I see some lazy ass bitch buying steak and a ton of junk food with a EBT card. People wonder why I can be bitter at times. I truly feel sorry for our young vets that are coming home with problems both physical and mental. I truly wonder why anyone would go in the military.

  2. Had I known what things would degenerate to I very well might have chosen not too serve.

    I's also say that maybe Rosa Parks would have moved to the back of the bus had she known what was coming.
