Actually, greed is taking what isn't yours or what you're not entitled to. It's what Democrats do best. They feel that it is being compassionate and altruistic to direct other people's money to solve problems....

"Aren't I so generous?"

"Why?

"I voted for a tax hike that I won't pay."

"Oh, sure... that makes you generous and kind."

I've never needed any hand-outs! I just pull myself up by my own jockstrap :awesome:
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

But those letters are not silent.

They're just waiting their turn.

I think my way is more fun. But I'll have to try your way at some point.

Working for something means it's not a handout.

An Unserious Man
by
Paul Krugman

He says that he would offset his tax cuts by “base broadening,” eliminating enough tax deductions to make up the lost revenue. Which deductions would he eliminate? He refuses to say — and realistically, revenue gain on the scale he claims would be virtually impossible.

At the same time, he asserts that he would make huge further cuts in spending. What would he cut? He refuses to say.

What Mr. Ryan actually offers, then, are specific proposals that would sharply increase the deficit, plus an assertion that he has secret tax and spending plans that he refuses to share with us, but which will turn his overall plan into deficit reduction.

If this sounds like a joke, that’s because it is. Yet Mr. Ryan’s “plan” has been treated with great respect in Washington. He even received an award for fiscal responsibility from three of the leading deficit-scold pressure groups. What’s going on?

The answer, basically, is a triumph of style over substance. Over the longer term, the Ryan plan would end Medicare as we know it — and in Washington, “fiscal responsibility” is often equated with willingness to slash Medicare and Social Security, even if the purported savings would be used to cut taxes on the rich rather than to reduce deficits. Also, self-proclaimed centrists are always looking for conservatives they can praise to showcase their centrism, and Mr. Ryan has skillfully played into that weakness, talking a good game even if his numbers don’t add up.

The question now is whether Mr. Ryan’s undeserved reputation for honesty and fiscal responsibility can survive his participation in a deeply dishonest and irresponsible presidential campaign.

I have to point out that pretty much the entire Republican establishment has withdrawn support from Akin. Meanwhile, when Biden talks about putting people in chains, the Democrats close ranks and support him.
