“No disrespect to those of you that aren't concerned with anyone's living situations, but it was BOUGHT to my attention that certain people have a problem with where OTHERS rests their head!

Your lifestyle is BORROWED! That's not YOUR HOUSE its rented and the money is being taken from TAXPAYERS to FUND you and yours! YOU MAY NOT LIVE WITH YOUR MOTHER BUT MY MOTHER MAKES SURE YOU HAVE A ROOF OVER YOUR HEAD EVERY DAY THAT SHE GOES TO WORK!”
