So you should at least be consistent and thing the entitlement mentality is great. <br /><br />I look down on "gimme" scum like you, but at the same time, if we can't take care of our lowest and grossest, then what kind of a society are we? I say, take care of our scum! Keep them healthy, and provide easy to access birth control, drug treatment, education and clean needle programs to keep diseases from spreading, etc. <br /><br />This is where the Republicans are very wrong. Clean needle programs and drug education are indeed a gimme, but a gimme that does tremendous good for society. Because diseases don't just stay in at the scum level, they tend to percolate up into the middle class. Scum who are stoned and sick and desperate do indeed share the same roads with decent people, whom they will rob, crash cars into, etc. <br /><br />Things like methadone programs, clean needles, education, mean that less scum get onto drugs and those scum who are on them, are much more likely to get off of them. Less crack babies. Less opiate-addicted babies. Less babies overall from that portion of society we really don't need more babies from. <br /><br />Just like a typical Republican she wants something for nothing. She wants a cheap place, the kind you can only get from scum who are illegally renting out their gov't housing, but she doesn't want what comes with it: Unexpected pets, filth, and the chance of being assaulted by either the scum or the scum's buddies who come reeling in in the wee hours. "Hey, is that your girlfriend, bro? Great, we'll all have a turn". <br /><br />As mentioned even myself, making far less than this gal does, would simply save up for a real hotel, or if push came to shove, go to the India House Hostel which is at least legal. alex carterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12458022111793552536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-650160678722829210.post-11669455843567894312016-11-19T19:25:53.452-06:002016-11-19T19:25:53.452-06:00Yup, she would probably have made Harold stay outs...Yup, she would probably have made Harold stay outside for 4 days so he wouldn't dig his claws into her tote; or would have said that she was entitled to a discount because I hadn't disclosed the fact that I had a cat; maybe even threatened to report me for subletting my place if I didn't comply...I'm sure she is one of those Republicans who are disgusted by the "entitlement" mentality, just as I am, but can't tell that from looking at me...Daniel McKenna IIIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04157964564856145960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-650160678722829210.post-45046025531332293692016-11-19T03:58:59.658-06:002016-11-19T03:58:59.658-06:00She sounds like a real PITA and I think she saved ...She sounds like a real PITA and I think she saved you a lot of trouble. alex carterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12458022111793552536noreply@blogger.com
