[nfb-talk] New List for Blind Conservatives

[John G. Heim]

Let me ask you something, when you talk about people with an entitlement 
mentality, who are you talking about? Yourself?   Dar? Me? The people on 
this list?   Who are these people with an entitlement mentality? Because 
that doesn't describe the blind people I know.

You just keep declaring that we have a problem with an entitlement 
mentality. What the heck is your evidence for that? The unemployment rate? 
To attribute the unemployment rate primarily to an entitlement mentality is 
truly ridiculous.  First of all, even if people are stuck on SSI because of 
the earnings cap, that doesn't mean they have an entitlement mentality. It 
just means that they can add and subtract.
