I said I had no problem helping those in trouble...as long as they actually BENEFITTED from my help. Some fuckwad on a street corner jiggling a styrofoam cup is just going to piss away my money on booze and cigarettes. If you want to prove to me that you're worth my pocket change, do something that's goddamn productive for a change. They're just sitting around feeling sorry for themselves...get off your ass and clean the sidewalk or sell some crap.
Granted, the US government needs to boost support for it's war vets...but if you were trained in the military, you should have some damn survival skills. Poeple who join the military know what they're getting into and usually they do it because they're just not good at anything else. But these people have to learn how to work with what they have and not expect me to freakin babysit them.
Most of the people who are well off worked hard to get where they are. Most of the homeless are lazy leeches. People shouldn't feel obligated to help those who can't cut it in the real world. I busted my ass through high school to get into a good engineering school. Then I busted my ass in college to keep my scholarship. And then I busted my ass to work for my grad school tuition. The reason I busted my ass for 9+ years was so I didn't end up like those worthless sacks of shit sitting in subway station begging people for their hard-earned money. If you want something, you've got to get it yourself.
Now, I'm all for helping hard working indiviuduals who have hit some hard times, but the majority of the homeless take what they can get and continue to leech off society. The government should not be held responsible for those who are too weak to hack it.
Games consoles are supposed to make a profit.
That's the first time I've ever heard that. Usually a console has to sold at a loss to the company just so they would have a big enough userbase to make money on the software.
