I would like you all to read this story about greed, selfishness, and unreasonableness: http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_localdtw/20110518/ts_yblog_localdtw/2m-michigan-lottery-winner-defends-use-of-food-stamps
Leroy Fick is a pathetic individual. He's arrogant, selfish, and spoiled. His (and his lawyer's) attitude can be summed up by this quote: "The problem is with the state". That statement is only half-correct. The other half of the problem is Leroy Fick; specifically, the problem is Leroy Fick being a greedy, welfare-abusing bastard.
Does it surprise anyone that one of the baby boomers would stoop to this low of a level? It doesn't surprise me one bit. After all, the boomers do form the "greediest generation ever", according to Thomas Friedman.
Anyway, food stamps and similar programs are for the truly needy. These programs are meant to make sure that Americans (especially youngsters) aren't starving and dying on the streets. Welfare programs are not for
millionaires.
Leroy Fick is, in my book, one of the greediest persons in America. I believe he belongs right up there with Republicans, Democrats, derivatives traders (especially SLABS and oil-futures traders), the UAW, the RIAA, professional athletes, and celebrities.
