To a degree, I'll go along with that. As a society, we have an obligation to
assist those of us that have, for whatever reason, found themselves without the means to do so for themselves.
However, I grow increasingly weary of subsidising generation after generation of professional couch potatoes, and breeding stock. There is no reason that you should be having
additional dependents, when you obviously cannot provide for those that you already have. I call for an end to the "Welfare State". Any one of us can conceivably find him or herself in need of assistance. That assistance should have a definate date of expiration. Pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and move on. If you have reached this point in your life, then
no job should be beneath you. I am more than willing to help you get back on your feet, but I am sick to death of supporting those that will not do so for themselves.
