It is a concept that I think we need--even you said, the idea is a good thing. Getting rid of it completely is selfish and ignorant. In my experience, that conservative teaching them how has really been more of a way of making them feel good while simultaneously getting rid of every social program on the books.

I am not for disapating the welfare program, just revamping it, its just that there may be no good way to give people free money cause it just makes them dependent and lazy. (of course there are always the few exceptions.)
