A lot of those government workers don't get something...
Poor people in America who didn't have cushy 100K/yr jobs, working at fucking Wal-Mart part time and McDonald's for the other part, know good and goddamn well how easy it is to get the banks, credit companies, car companies, and utility companies to ease up off your ass for two or three months.
Lost your job? First thing you do is call all of the above. 90% of utility companies will pro-rate your current bill (some will even tell you to wait a month or two so you can pro-rate the big bill) across 6 or 12 months. Churches (Salvation Army & St Vincent DePaul) as well as Goodwill offer utility assistance. Credit card companies will freeze your (more than likely) maxed out card with 0% interest for a month or two.
The fact that these government workers are claiming they're about to be evicted tells poor people (like me) that they were already behind in their rent and utilities, couldn't be assed to stay current on the bills, and didn't bother to save up $20.
Plus, when do poor people see government workers? At the food stamp office. Cushy fucking jobs, passing you from person to person and making sure you can't get anything done. Smugly telling you that you make $15 too much to get your kid's teeth fixed.
Your average poor white trash has NO fucking pity for these government leeches. I don't know about the ghetto dancing reta.rd brigade or the barrio strutting greasers, but everyone knows that government workers are lazier than fuck.
Seeing all this "FREE BROADWAY TICKETS FOR GOVERNMENT WORKERS!" and "FREE THIS FOR GOVERNMENT WORKERS!" when these same companies couldn't give two shits about Uncle Alvin or Aunt Hope when they lost their fucking jobs at the mill and the government workers basically laughed and went "Well, move where the jobs are. Get with the times!"
Pretty much everyone I know sees the "Poor government workers! Won't you give? For only $125 day you can make sure Fatass McBitchpants is kept in donuts and bonbons during this terrible time!" bullshit and says: "NOW YOU KNOW HOW IT FEELS, YOU FUCKING HYPOCRITE!"
As for the whole "Extra food stamps" thing, yeah, most of the people I know who are on food stamps went "Oh... shit..." when they got them early. Lots of stocking up on non-perishable foods and canned goods rather than chips and shit. But then, I dont really know anyone who acts like the stereotypical welfare queen.
There is one little underline that isn't being noticed: Last year new rules went through that if you are employable and between 18 and 52, no in college, not caring for someone disabled, not disabled yourself, you can get THREE MONTHS OF FOOD STAMPS. Boom. That's it. And the old loophole of being listed as a dependent was closed. After that three months you are listed as a non-working dependent and get no food stamp increase.
Since it started in Jan, that means that Feb and March will be the last months for a lot of these people.
I"ve got more, mostly about how the whole Troon thing seems to ignore that the War on Terror has really warped people's perception of war so that they think that the military will always operate out of high end FOBs, have uninterrupted logistics chains, and magic wands that provide medication immediately.
But I'll save that sperg for later.
