I think most of these guys are right. It would pay for itself overnight. Yes, we may see an increase in crime because many welfare recipients can't think of another way to make a living. I would rather deal with that than this current situation.

We simply get tougher on that as well. "Three strikes you're out" turns into "three strikes you're dead". We free up prison space by eliminating our draconian drug laws. We build prisons with the money saved on the welfare programs. We continue to liberalize CCW and self-defense laws so the good people of this country can shoot the bad ones. It would be great.
