Just wondering...

...how is Mississippi going to afford to enforce this amendment? I mean, Topeka, Kansas just voted to stop prosecuting domestic violence cases 'cause there isn't enough money in the budget and something had to get cut. Last I looked, Kansas was right there at 28 or 29 in state wealth and Mississippi? Was dead last.

Oh, that's simple. They'll just cut expenditures on something unimportant, like health care for the indigent, or affordable housing. After all, it's well-known that poor people are only poor because they are lazy, no?

Well, exept for those unfortunates who are unemployed because some evil Latino came across the border illegally and stole his job.

But either way, coddling people of that sort by providing them with benefits only encourages them to remain poor and unemployed.
