There is nothing wrong with being on welfare. I'm sure you'd work if there were jobs, right? Right? Ok just making sure. Hypothetically,

Keep in mind you didn't pay for it anyway. Flyovers raging about "big gubmint" while accepting payouts from non-blighted states are very strange to me. Why keep voting against your interests? I don't mind paying taxes but some gratitude, not for me but just generally towards the system that keeps you fed, seems to be in order I should think.

The program came about as an indirect result of the US subsidy program for dairy farmers. When Reagan was elected to office the US had a giant warehouse full of almost expired cheese that had been bought in previous years to prop up the dairy industry, and they put 2 and 2 together and realized they could give it away to the poor

Are the police ruthless, racist, cold-blooded murderers or are they good enough to protect me now? When can the government ensure this happens?

Also, how did the government ensure food distribution occurred? States had to have a certain population to exist in the first place, which means food distribution had to exist naturally BEFORE a government was allowed to be formed.

Every time one of you Commie retards says this I wonder what the actual worth of my labor is.
I'm an RN. I have saved probably somewhere between 100 and 150 human lives in acute situations and many more if we're counting long-term care and rehabilitation.
What should I be paid for that?
I know you idiots also think healthcare should be "free" so I guess I should be paid nothing?

>healthcare should be "free" so I guess I should be paid nothing?
It should be free, or subsidised at least: I can't comprehend how any developed nation *wouldn't* want a healthy population.

But, conflating "free healthcare" with "I won't get paid as a healthcare provider" is absolutely braindead-tier. Do police and firefighters not get paid? Come on.

>> No.13185084

>>13185059
If you're just forcing someone else to pay for it it's not free, retard. That's the point.
I do think it would be overall better for society if people were healthy but I don't see why I have to pay for the health issues of others. And I'm not entirely sure that providing healthcare to them at no cost encourages healthy living either.
I'm much more interested in the first part of my post, though. What is the value of a doctor's or nurse's work?
What is the value of a firefighter's work?

Nobody who bitches about 'muh taxes' and shit actually understand how government, specifically Federal, grants work. You realize they just straight up fucking print bills to pay for shit, right? Taxes are just a way to fight deflation and prevent trusts. Ironically, the fact that both of those things are constant threats to the economy should tell you that taxes are probably too low.

>I don't see why I have to pay for the health issues of others
And I don't see why I should have to pay because some dumb schmuck's house burnt down or because some moron got themselves kidnapped and murdered. But, that's the world (country) we live in: co-opting the cost of the misfortune of others. And putting healthcare outside that bubble is retarded and irresponsible.

yes it is the cheese bunker. but its not because they wont sell it all. Cheese cant be kept forever unless youre making aged cheese obviously.

its underground but it also has advantages being that cheese needs to be kept at certain temps.
