Hello John,   
      
    LL>>>> Should welfare recipients be sterilized as a condition to   
    LL>>>> remain on welfare?   
      
    JM>>> No;   
      
    LL>> David Duke thought it was good idea.  Many other Americans agreed   
    LL>> with him, electing him (as a Republican) to Congress.  He then went   
    LL>> on to make the runoff for governor of Louisiana, but was easily   
    LL>> defeated by (Democrat) Edwin Edwards, who made race and welfare a   
    LL>> major part of his campaign.  :)   
      
    JM> That is true. But has nothing to do with me. Why bring it up?   
      
   David Duke is a Republican.  David Duke won election to Congress   
   as a Republican.  David Duke claims his ideas represent the ideas   
   of all Republicans, and that his ideas are the basic foundation   
   of the Republican Party (as it exists today).   
      
   In order to repudiate David Duke, you would have to also repudiate   
   the Republican Party.  Are you willing to do that?   
      
    JM>> But They should not be given one more penny IF they have JM>a child AFTER   
    JM> they are already on welfare.   
      
    LL>> I don't see why not.   
      
    JM> I know you don't.   
      
   There are planned, and unplanned, pregnancies.   
   There are wanted, and unwanted, babies.   
      
   Those who claim to be pro-life say that abortion   
   is murder, while also at the same time being in favor   
   of the death penalty for inmates on life row.   
      
   Who has the right to play God?  Does anybody have   
   the right to tell a woman she has to get rid of her   
   own unborn child because society refuses to pay for   
   what society says is a mistake?   
      
   Why do rich folks get a pass while poor folks   
   always get the blame?  Guess who gets the most   
   abortions in America?  Oh, but those little   
   morning after pills rich folks buy at the corner   
   drug store don't count.  And all them rich folks   
   on life row?  There are none.  Lots of black   
   folk.  But no rich folk.   
      
    JM> I also know it is pointless to try and discuss it with you.   
      
   Lemme see if I got this right.   
      
   You are against welfare.   
      
   That being the case -   
      
   What are you for?
