Random thoughts from conversations

If Condi Rice is really doing what Haaretz says she did, I'm upset.

------------

How can anyone think a welfare state is a good idea? If you are able to work and don't, you don't eat, and can't afford somewhere to live. Simple.

If you are working, and still unable to make ends meet, then government assistance, and extra education to increase your skills is a good idea.

If you are unable to work, and have no family and no money, then government assistance is necessary.

If you are able to work, but can't find a job, unemployment benefits and more education/training is a good idea.

Get people off their asses and you'll reduce violence, drug abuse, and the need for either a welfare state or projects.

Until then, don't come crying to me that you only get enough money from the government for one BMW. I've worked my ass off to get where I am, and I didn't need any help from the government.

I agree with you. As much as I am a strong believer in government programmes for those who really need it, I don't think that people who are able-bodied and in need of money should receive government handouts. Now, training programmes, assistance for those with underpaying jobs, and help for those who are really in dire straits are definitely effective, but the whole 'welfare-queen' philosophy is destructive to both the individual practising it and to the government providing the funds.
