Dr. Ben Carson is a political hypocrite.


I guess the difference was he moved on and did not consider public
assistance a lifestyle.

Most of us have no problem with a safety net, we just don't want it to
be a hammock.


Carson was helped by government every step of his way, and now he and
his supporters want to deny that help to others.



Horse****. Where and when has Carson and his supporters said they want
to deny welfare, food stamps or educational aid to underprivileged
people? He's stood for just the opposite, citing his own experience as
an example. He is, like many, against continuous handouts for those
unwilling to help themselves.

This is just Harryspeak bull****.
