16 kids and wanting more!!!

Sorry to let you in on this, but by the time I'm retired, Social Security won't exist anymore.

I think it's totally irresponsible, and it should NOT be encouraged in any way shape or form.

I won't back down on my opinion either. You're all entitled to yours, by all means. This sort of thing just REALLY gets me angry.

That is your opinion, and thats great, but you can express it in a normal way. There is no reason to be a raging fanatic about it.

I'm not saying you should back down on your opinion. At all. I respect that you think she's had too many kids. But, it's the way you were saying you didn't like it because she was abusing welfare, and, there's nothing saying that she is. And, there's a difference in being angry and speaking calmly and being angry and nasty. I can't speak for anyone else, but, I was just confused at why you were being so nasty in expressing your opinion. Again, I respect your opinion, completely. I wouldn't want you to back down. But, if it's welfare moms that piss you off, that doesn't appear to be the case here.

It may not exist by the time I retire either, but in any case, they will be taxpeyrs when you are ready to retire, and so will be supporting the government that will, in all likelihood, be contributing some to your well-being, whether or not it is called Social Security at that time. Civilzation my well fall completely apart, sure, but I'm betting against that happening.

Anger can be always expressed, as well as any differences of opinion, in a civil manner. Civlity is generally prefered here on Pet Talk.
