Why, there are plenty adults sucking the teat of government dependency.
Assuming that you are correct,
is that the fault of the government,
or the fault of the people doing the sucking?

If only a small portion of the populace takes unfair advantage of the programs,
how is that the fault of the government?

If someone becomes hooked on pain pills,
is that the fault of the drug company,
or the fault of the addict?

Unfair, to me,
means taking part in a government, or private program
using fraudulent means.

It is done every day,
to me, calling in sick to have a day off is no different than
lying to a doctor about a bad back.

Fraud to me is "unlawful", or should be proscribed. Not what liberals mean, when they seek to prescribe government action.

The former relates to negative liberty, the latter to positive liberty.

We're at the point where people working hard at keeping up with the latest ball game scores and adding as many beer cans to the recycle barrel as they can, can vote themselves a bigger couch, a bigger TV and more beer, at the expense of that little girl's future.

I don't have to do that anymore, Sea. I thought you knew I was retired since you have tried to butt into my retirement personal pension business numerous times.
