Now that I did not vote for Romney, I already wish that I did?

What makes you think he cares about the poor?

"I'm not concerned about the very poor, we have a safety net there, if it needs repair ill fix it"

"There are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe that government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you name it."

"And so my job is not to worry about those people—I'll never convince them that they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives."

So you think everyone has a right to a house?

There is a safety net for the very poor...there are thousands of them.  Not even including the nearly 100 government welfare programs, there are also Charities and shelters that are publicly and privately funded.  Is all that not enough for you?  We need to throw even more money at the problem?

There is a difference between a house and housing. Housing means not living on the street. Don't you think people are entitled to food? Apparently Romney doesn't. The fact is that we should provide opportunity for people to succeed, not just a safety net.
