Have you noticed that republicans are against all social programs until they need to use it themselves?

First off, both unemployment and social security are programs conservatives are forced to pay into and therefore use to recoup their money. Now I have never been on unemployment, so I can't say I refused to use, but I have been paying into unemployment and social security for 27 years now without receiving a dime back so far and may not the way things are going. Conservatives want to see people protected from economic disasters, especially due to illness, but anything the government runs is a disaster. Open your eyes, we are 14 trillion in debt, adding 100 billion a month to that pile. We need to change many things, using common sense to do so. The days of the government give aways is over.
