The best thing to do about
rabid lefties is to continue to undermine the foundations

The earth would be most scorched at Wieber's place, and probably at
many of you so-called survivalists' places as well. No more discounts
on power and gas. No more monthly checks. No more free healthcare. No
more sliding on paying taxes and rent. As a "leftist," I'm fine with
all that. It would be fun to watch some of you morons walk your talk
for a change. Oh, and when Wieber gets stuck head first in a dumpster
foraging for his next meal, no fire dept rescue. Just slam the lid and
slap a toxic waste warning sticker on the bin.
Yet it is the idiot left that is constantly whining about their fear
of those entitlements you listed being stopped.
The vast majority of folks who would suffer if gov't entitlements were
to cease are those living in those big blue liberal cities with tons
of public housing.
Another rightard myth:
[Medicaid]
"In many ways, these programs play a bigger role in rural than in urban America. Nationally, Medicaid provides health insurance to a larger share of the population in rural areas. Further, these programs are critical sources of income for rural health care providers, and they contribute to economic development in rural communities"
...."Nationwide, 15.6 percent of rural residents reported being enrolled in Medicaid, compared to 12.5 percent of urban residents." -- "State Profiles of Medicaid and SCHIP in Rural and Urban Areas"
http://www.shepscenter.unc.edu/rural...eport/FR91.pdf
[Food stamps]
"Underlying these numbers is a little-noticed trend: a large and growing gap between the participation rates for urban and rural Americans. Individuals living in urban areas participate at lower rates: in 2010, they had a participation rate of 72.9 percent versus 85.6 percent for those in rural areas. This differential€”now, more than 12 percentage points€”has grown in recent years." -- "Urban-Rural Trends in SNAP Participation: What's Going On?"
http://www.urban.org/urban-wire/urba...on-whats-going
[Social Security Disability Payments]
"According to recent nationwide data results, it appears that the highest concentrations of individuals on a per capita basis who rely on Social Security Disability benefits reside in poor, rural settings." -- "Do Rural or Urban Communities Have a Stronger Reliance on Disability Benefits?"
https://www.disabilitybenefitscenter...ility-benefits
It's surprising they can get so fat, living on the kind of **** that you rightards spew:
"Obesity is markedly higher among adults from rural versus urban areas of the United States, with estimates that are much higher than the rates suggested by studies with self-reported data." -- "Prevalence of Obesity Among Adults From Rural and Urban Areas of the United States"
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3481194/
Fat, sick, dependent, and conned by lying rightards. Welcome to rural America!
