You're wrong on this one TQS - people thinking that taking care of their neighbors and the downtrodden in society is the Governments responsibility and not their own is exactly the main reason that the DS has gotten so much power - because it was abdicated to them by the people.
You know, there's a tactical opportunity here. If enough individuals make it a point to do the work the welffare workers suck at, it takes the lead out of the leftist's pencils, so to speak. People helping each other voluntarily kills the argument for government intervention.
I'm not sure how you could organize such things, but there's potential here is my point.
Then don't put words in his mouth. I could be wrong in his intended message but, TQS gets notified of responses to his posts so he could easily correct my assessment of his intention himself - and - I clearly stated "You're wrong on THIS ONE" inferring that I generally agree with what TQS posts. FWIW, I'm not the only one that read his post as him thinking that this should be the government's responsibility.
I don't totally agree with that. Before welfare, free medical (not free, paid for by taxpayers), there were charitable religious organizations, civic bodies and just people helping each other. When they government began doling out freebies there was less reason, and less incentive to do what we had always done in this country.

Thanks.

You did not read TQS response to me, did you?
