More like exploiters.
The vast majority of people that take government assistance should be earning their own way instead of taking the earnings of others.
But it is easier to vote for Democrats than actually working so the collapse of our economy will continue.

Romney has gone and done it again. The Republican presidential candidate called 47 percent of Americans "victims" for supporting President Obama in a recent video of him talking at a private fundraiser.
Romney thinks Obama supporters are living off of state handouts, and he is probably right for about 10-15 percent of them... but it's that other 85-90 percent of Democrats that go to work and participate in the economy that he should be trying to get to vote for him! Insulting potential voters is most likely not the wisest strategy, and you know Obama will be all over this in the debates. Remember Regan Democrats? That's what he needs to win. Good luck with this one, Mittens.

NEWS.YAHOO.COM reports:
Mitt Romney stood by his comments captured on a hidden camera at a closed-door fundraiser earlier this year in which he called supporters of President Barack Obama "victims" and said they are reliant on government handouts. In a hastily arranged news conference Monday night, he called his words "off the cuff" and "not elegantly stated."

Also, as a side note -
I am not proud to be an American anymore. Everywhere I turn, I see people fighting against everything we used to stand for. You've brought down the very traditions and values you claim to uphold.
There was a time when we were proud to help out those in need, because it was the American way to provide every man and woman the opportunity to succeed and to improve the lives of not just some of us, but all of us.
Those times are apparently long gone. All we worry about now is how profitable "our" corporations are, or how much of our money the government "steals." We look down on the poor as lazy, as failures, and we blame them for their situation. We look up to the rich and see them as champions of our system; we believe they got there because of their hard work and effort.
I'm sick of the ignorance the majority of the American population lives in. Of the lies and propaganda we are fed on a daily basis. Wake up, America. The dream is over.
Seriously, working two jobs is an answer and we don't like having to do it but sometimes it's necessary.
As far as "victims" yes, when you continuously bail people out, they never truly learn to stay on their feet. What's that saying....give a man a fish and he eats for a day, teach him to fish and he will eat for a lifetime. I'd rather pay the money for everyone to go to some kind of school to learn a trade than pay out the money for over 2 years and they still don't have job skills. Just say'n, things have to change, we give out more than we every have before and it is not sustainable.
Romney criticizes Obama for playing divisive games of class warfare in public, then uses class warfare as a fund-raising tool in private.
These are your candidates America.
Not all of us that have money are greedy btches that would turn on their own family to get a buck. Some of us would rather lose a few bucks then letting people hunger.
Your paraphrasing is a misrepresentation of Romney's remarks and views.
Like Solyndra.....
Who's out of touch?
BTW, how much of what Romney says, does he really mean or believe? Or is he pandering to saying whatever he thinks will get him elected? Somehow, he comes across as a comedian, and I just don't believe what he says. Why is O'Romney, not just the latest New World Order criminal elitist puppet face?
Ron Paul 2012!
