It`s all starting to remind me of George Orwell or Ray Bradbury.

Same old jingoistic bullshit- demonizing immigrants and terrorists- if we can blame welfare moms, Arabs and Mexicans for the present fuck up then no one will notice the real causes.

Drug testing- heck why stop there? Put them all in work camps. Work makes you free don`t you know?
Lets punish the poor.

What some people don't realize is how great it is being poor, not having to work or have a purpose. I'm sure they would rather be poor than have to suffer like all those millionaires who will now have to pay a little more under Obama. I feel so sad for these unfortunate people. I feel your pain! Maybe all those who received stimulas money should have to pass a drug test or give the money back. I love the double standard where people are always outraged about the most vulnerable people in our society while the most powerful people/corporations can murder people/ruin lives and walk away and these same people say little or nothing. Capitalism at its finest!
