[Superman]

My perspective does not entirely miss folks' point about personal responsibility and the Welfare State creating a sense of entitlement. I get it. Does that mean I will substitute your judgement for mine? Nope. In a social construct more like Sparta, where you would expect folks to take responsibility for their decisions, even for their poor decisions, I still have a concern. It is just possible that a poor man might work hard and not get rich. It is further possible that the poor man's infant daughter might become gravely ill. And that poor man may have access to a firearm. So.....this delicious notion that we can all save money while changing lazy good-for-nothing freeloaders into productive and responsible citizens.....well, I think that's an amusing theory.
