They may not live in the Hamptons, and I realize they don't make up anywhere near the 47% that Romney quoted, but they do exist. And they ruin the system for everyone.<br><br>Paul<br><div><span><br></span></div><div><br></div> <div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div dir="ltr"> <font face="Arial" size="2"> <hr size="1"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">From:</span></b> Robert Dickow <dickow@turbonet.com><br> <b><span style="font-weight:

Funny, I have personally never seen that sort of thing happening, though I suppose it’s just a matter of odds that somebody out there is happy to just take their single mom government checks and then sit on the beach in Cancun sipping Margaritas all day, saving up to buy a big yacht without lifting a finger to improve their lot in life. The last person I saw paying for food with food stamps at Safeway certainly didn’t look like they were doing anything along those lines. So, are there any hard figures out there that demonstrate how many bona fide ‘leeches’ are among
the U.S. government assistance recipients-- well-off, fat and sassy-- actively finagling the system so can *<b>avoid</b>* ever having to have a real job? Loaded question, I know. But hey, Mitt, there might be a couple of people out there like that, ok…. that’s maybe just the cost of doing business.</span></div><div class="yiv1471310912MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D;"> </span></div><div class="yiv1471310912MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D;">Frankly, the way things are going, I’m afraid that. being a musician and academic, I might be accused of being a burden to society.</span></div><div class="yiv1471310912MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D;"> </span></div><div class="yiv1471310912MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D;">Bob Dickow, troublemaker</span></div><div class="yiv1471310912MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D;"> </span></div><div><div style="border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in
