I can't help but I can't believe someone would go after you for needing assistance.  What a turd.  Good luck with your surgery and you are a really good-looking woman!

 I don't have a dog in this fight, but I didn't see the other poster as flaming the OP at all. He/she was just asking a question. 

He/she wasn't rude at all, nor did he/she say anything "not nice". I don't believe asking questions constitutes being rude.

I've made a lot of posts since then and apparently they aren't showing up.  I'm active on other boards.  This perhaps is a lesson in not to make assumptions.

Well, Mr. Church Man, you should perhaps read your Bible again.  Especially, the words in red.  You think Jesus regretted feeding the 5,000?  As my father who is a Southern Baptist minister says, "If churches and those who support them were really doing their jobs as outlined in the Bible and in Christ's words, then there wouldn't be a need for social programs would there?"  You are nothing more than a hypocrite.  Thankfully, I'm not the one who will be judging you.

As for your "who's paying for handouts" argument.  I still pay taxes!  Duh!

Crack a book and educate yourself.  Do you think I don't pay taxes?  I pay taxes on non-food items as well as the income I receive from other sources.  Hopefully, you won't reap the sort of negativity and ignorance you sew.

Yeah...I went alllll they way back (two posts before today).  My complaint is exactly what you are saying.  It said you were paying $8,000 and I am like then why the heck are you not buying food.  Guess it would **** you off too.  It is my bad, and i will apologize.  I was only two posts before today, so it is not like it didn't just pop up on the first page.  I am coole with medicare paying for it.  It was thought of you sitting on $8,000 that was ******g me off.

I am not cutting down any type of assitance nor have I ever.  But if someone is sitting on a pile of cash and getting assistance, you bet I am going to pipe up!

I've paid enough taxes in my lifetime to ***** and moan about where its going.  I stop at the traffic light on main street. Baltimore. One lady  walks up to me and has a sign "out of work with kids, please help God Bless" and a pan. On the other side of the street a woman walks pass my car with a bottle of cold juice in one hand and flowers in the other a buck for the juice 2 bucks for the flowers
I noticed the cultural differences in the two people. 
  
At times, I have been so broke that I could'nt pay attention - so please dont look at me for compassion. Its like handing out fish rather than a hook , line and bait. 
Now I give til it makes my wife mad.  I sit on church board to determine special family needs, and other boards doing the same with funding and Vol work

As for the social heath care programs you refer to, they're broke, who do you think is paying the benefits?????Somebody in Ga Ga land  

Yea, I'am pissed at hand-outs.  Alot of that going around these days

just for the record, having weight loss surgery is not some sort of LUXURY that you only are allowed if you are fortunate enough to have a well paying job.  a lot of people are rendered unable to work because of morbid obesity.  or they face extreme discrimination about being large.  i know that during imes when i was unemployed i couldn't BEAR the thought of buying a suit and actually going on interviews when i knew i could be subject to ridicule.  any one of us could be without and any one of us could still be suffering as a larger person.  there is no reason to be judgmental.

I will check with my store.  Thanks for the idea.  The only issue with paying a kid or having someone else get the groceries is that the card can only be used by me (it has a signature on the back and most places check for ID).  I don't want to engage in Food Stamp fraud...I don't look good in stripes or prison orange.

I'm thinking that my best bet is going to be to call my orthopedic surgeon and see if he can prescribe me with a wheelchair rental. Crutches are okay around the house, but to attempt to shop with them is a nightmare.

That post was from 2007!  2007!  That would be two years ago.  Really?  You were that interested in my personal finances that you went back two years in my posts to validate your little argument?  Yeah, a few months after that is when I lost my job.  So, I've shot down your little "She has $8,000" argument.  You think I would be on Food Stamps and Medicaid if I had that kind of money?  In the past two years, I have had to give up my house, my car, family heirlooms, sold furniture, etc. just to get by.  My current apartment is furnished with freebies from Freecycle and Craigslist.  Yeah, I'm just living it up on my non-existent $8,000.
