>I know young men in their late 20's who are living at home with the parents, where the parents are upper-middle income. The young men pay no rent, mooch off parents who basically permit it for various reasons - and these young men are eligible for health care subsidies. Stinks to high heaven.

>Granted, this is more a culture thing than a political thing, but it's sick to see. An increasing # of parents are making things way too easy for their kids. I've spoken with such parents (and shouldn't shock you, they can't stand me) - and funny, they are all Democrats who voted for Obama. Hmmm, wonder if there's any connection.

Why do people who can't stand you tell you who they voted for. If I met you and couldn't stand you I'd tell you whatever wound you up (like voting for Obama) just to see the pissed off look in your eyes.
