[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about the child care tax credit? Or the mortgage interest write off that allows people to live in bigger houses to accommodate families? How about free public education? Or subsidized college loans? If you can't afford to send your own kid to college, why should the taxpayers help you?

OP, do you oppose public benefits for the middle and upper classes, or only those that benefit the poor? Serious question. [/quote]

I support public benefits when they benefit the public, not when they enable them to continue making poor choices. Father loses job, has 4 kids. Yes, help him. poor student gets free education...absolutely, as long as he wants to learn. Welfare recipient having more kids to collect more benefits, no frickin way. 
Help those who want to help themselves.

BOOM! Game on![/quote]

Ok, if you over mortgage yourself them no mortgage deduction. If you go bankrupt then no tax deductions or college aid.

Plenty of middle class people make poor life decisions but no one questions their benefits.[/quote]

The difference is if you keep making the same mistake over and over again and expect someone to keep bailing you out. [/quote]

Actually there is no limit on the times people can declare bankruptcy. No penalties. I know someone who worked for the CIA and foreclosed on homes, bankruptcy, etc. Just nuts. This guy also has 4 kids, 3 different wives. All of his children will qualify for subsidies, etc. One step above welfare, of course.[/quote]
