This has to be the stupidest reason not to help our own disabled citizens that I've ever heard.   ::)
Should we lower our standards to the levels of Ethiopia or Chad? 

Whatever it takes to get people to be able to buy fresh food and afford medical expenses.  Cut the military.  Cut the gay pride parade.  Let your kids pay for school, like my friend did before she became disabled. 

A total red herring.  Now you're just making stuff up that I never said.  Nice try.

And how much are you willing to pay for it?  I don't think some people should be forced to pay over 50% of tax at gunpoint (which it essentially comes to). I'm saying the poor in Canada have it a lot better than other countries and they should be fortunate for even that.

There are charitable organizations that do a far better job of allocating funds than government.

Can't cut the military as we have commitments and it helps ensure sovereignty as well there are times it's needed.  Security first.  I would rather be able to pay for my kids to go to school than be soaked at tax time. 

The USA tried declaring war on poverty and it has been an abject failure.
