Funny how you people get so bent out of shape over simple generalization. If you're so educated, they must have not taught you how to make educated guesses. I'm guessing that Miggity was referring to the people who really don't need this. You know the type. The ones on welfare living off the tit of the public tax dollar. Why do they get to sit on their asses and watch TV when they should be out earning an honest dollar? If he was talking about people who've put themselves through school and have jobs, then he's an idiot, but with the kind of reasoning he was using, I feel confident that he is not. Getting your panties in a wad because you think generalizations about certain types of people include you when it's obvious you are educated and working and not living off the tit of the public tax dollar makes you look very uneducated and incredibly foolish. I'd also like to know why you're buying brand new TV's when you say things like "my family struggles to make ends meet on 1/2 that after I've spent 20 years paying taxes. I bet ya all the aforementioned crooks are eating better than my family and doing it on both yours and my taxes so I'll take a break anytime I can get it!" I believe you've got some incredibly fucked up priorities and your kids need role models. I'm sorry, but you cannot have your cake and eat it, too if you've got to use words like "struggling" to indicate your financial status.
I will not be getting a voucher because I think it's ridiculous. We're in a war, we're going into an economic crises, and people are bitching at each other about getting free boxes so they can sit in front of a TV and and ignore the world. I'm telling you, people. This is only the beginning of what will become some sort of massive Big Brother movement. First it's our cable, then it's little boxes that "enhance" our life and keep us "safe" according to the Patriot Act that no one ever voted on.
“An engineer explained to us that hundreds of ear impressions were gathered in the name of research, and while each one obviously boasted its own unique shape and size, one single characteristic remained uniform across the board: the entrance into the ear canal is not a perfect circle, it's an oval.”
