Very dishonest post John.

Taking

"The plan is for people making $82k to receive the money. Neither I nor the post article (a newspaper article, not a libertarian blog, not that the source matters as long as the facts are accurate, and in this case they are), indicated that the average person getting benefits will make that much."

and turning it in to

"The plan is for people making $82k to receive the money.... indicated that the average person getting benefits will make that much."

smacks of deliberate deception. At a minimum its carelessly giving a very distorted view of other people's statements.

The part in parenthesis could easily be removed and replaced with elipsis in your quote, but removing the rest that you removed and turning a claim that "I'm not saying X", into a claim of "X" really is something you should apologize for.
