Working hard and feeling you just cannot get ahead...Suckas!

If we didn't laugh, we would cry...

If Mark Steyn's news left me depressed yesterday, Tyler Durden and Vodka Pundit are goading me to go out and pelt an Occupy Camp with rotten eggs and fish heads:  Yes it is confirmed, with all the government assistance you will have more disposable income working one week a month on minimum wage and collecting the available benefits than working for a $60,000 a year salary in a full time stressful job.  So it is not just fat cat corporations getting government bailouts.  

Not surprisingly, it is not only the richest and most audacious thieves that prosper - it is also the penny scammers at the very bottom of the economic ladder that rip off the middle class each and every day, courtesy of the world's most generous entitlement system...

We have been writing for over a year, how the very top of America's social order steals from the middle class each and every day. Now we finally know that the very bottom of the entitlement food chain also makes out like a bandit compared to that idiot American who actually works and pays their taxes. One can only also hope that in addition to seeing their disposable income be eaten away by a kleptocratic entitlement state, that the disappearing middle class is also selling off its weaponry. Because if it isn't, and if it finally decides it has had enough, the outcome will not be surprising at all: it will be the same old that has occurred in virtually every revolution in the history of the world to date.

We are also subsidizing the protest class with this nonsense. 
Update:  

• Crack Emcee has some cultural links (watch the video commentary on the decline of America from a left perspective--obviously I do not agree with everything he is saying) that seems to fit very well with this... 
• What are beliefs doing to change reality?
