I get set off by political memes, especially when they stigmatize an already marginalized group of people. In this case, it's the poor and, more specifically, welfare recipients. I applied for public assistance during this latest stint of unemployment and was rejected because my meager unemployment check was still too much money despite my bills. I also tried to apply for Medicaid and was also rejected, despite the fact that my only other recourse was COBRA, which would have taken more than a quarter of my income.
BONUS: There is a Heartburn Honeys with Heavy D and me to end on a fun note.
