No on has a "right" to be lazy and demand free shit, BUT they do have a "right" to pull themselves up by the boot straps and make something of themselves.
I have an issue giving away tax dollars for any reason when we are 30 trillion in debt and printing more every day.... it’s clear that the debt + inflation are an attack from within by our s ‘elected’ representatives
True, but the government makes it harder to hire people. You used to be able to hire someone for an afternoon to sweep your store's floors and pay them in cash, allowing people not suited for or capable of full-time work to contribute and make enough money to afford a room and buy some food. Now you have to fill out tons of paperwork, make sure they have a copy of your sexual harassment policies, and be willing to commit to them for life or risk being sued.
The main problem with the lazy is not how much money the syphon from the system. It's that they are used to vote in corrupt politicians who give them a small cut and steal the rest. The truth is, most of our tax dollars go to funding those who are much wealthier than us. The ignorantly left on the other hand sees the government as a charity when nothing could be further from the truth. The government pays itself and it's wealthy benefactors. Its lazy dependents get what's left but never too much, as that might allow them to leave. Lazy government dependents undermine the whole system in many ways.
If you want to help the needy, give them help directly. If you want to help the rich, you can do it by paying more taxes.
Yep!!!

Exactly right.
Amen! Been saying this for over 20 years. If you can work, get your ass out there and support yourself and your family! PERIOD!

If you fund something, you will get more of it. Like the war on drugs.
