Welfare, Weakened In Clinton Years, Now A Key Piece Largely Missing From Economic Safety Net

To begin with, he couldn't get a job at McDonalds; no manager would hire him. It's a teenager's job.
Even if he could get a job at McDonalds, it wouldn't support him much less a family.
You seem to have contempt for people who, through no fault of their own, have lost their jobs and can't find new ones. There aren't enough jobs for all of the people who want and need them.
Have you ever been hungry and have no idea where your next meal is coming from? Do you have children? Have you ever worried about how you were going to feed them? Have you ever been homeless? Walk in his shoes before you comment about "terminal losers" -- And use your real name. I can't imagine your having any idea about dignity or self-respect when you know that you'd be afraid to own your comments around people who actually knew who you are.
And as a liberal Democrat, I don't think this guy is a good vote for Obama -- I think this guy is a black eye for all everyone in Congress and the White House, for the past 20 years. I've been writing about what Republicans and DLC-Democrats were doing to the nation and what the inevitable result was going to be since the Reagan years. They knew that what they were doing would have dire effects on everyone's lives in America, but they were too cowardly to take on the Reagan myth.
A good portion of the blame also goes to the media and to people like you, who so loved your movie star president that whenever the media reported what the impact of Reagan's deregulating and privatizing, you rallied to Reagan's defense (like the Bushies and 0bots) and attacked the media. The media's reaction was to stop reporting anything that might have Reagan's and Republicans' fans upset.
