I thought we were talking about silly social policy and Liberals. This is quickly morphing into the positions that Liberals care about the disadvantaged vs. the Conservatives who dont.
It's not accurate to assume that.
To answer the question, of course. and no I wasn't trying to say you were stating a position like that. However, I still don't agree with the belief that it's a genetic "trait" which is a determining factor to success.
As for helping those who truly need it, of course- it's our responsibility to help, that isn't disputed. The various handicapped, disadvantaged, children, and the elderly are deserving of the assistance. What i'm saying is that the able-bodied thugs, drug addicts, people who kink the system and simply lazy people deserve nothing, nothing at all! especially an excuse!
