Welfare

Welfare...
Is it a legitimate function of the government to take away the wealth that YOU created and hand it over to someone that's done nothing to earn it? Should those that achieve be punished by being forced to pay the way for those that didn't?

I'd buy the whole "It isn't glamorous" thing if they didn't so horribly spend the money they're given.  I work at wal-mart, and you can always tell when someone is going to pay with food stamps because they get tons of fatty shit; frozen burrios and egg rolls seem to make up their diets, and they seem to drink nothing but coke, because they always come through with like 50 bottles of them, the expensive brand name stuff too.  Tons and tons of candy, like four boxes of twinkies.  Why are we buying them comfort food?  We're paying for their heart attacks so that they can burden the economy with their health expenses!

In contrast, a normal person gets a loaf of bread, some sandwich makings, dried beans and rice, maybe some sausage; you know, good wholesome food that doesn't cost too much.

I'd say if we're going to do welfare, we should do it more along the lines of WIC tenders; very specific nutritious food that they have to get, like, for example, a gallon of milk and two bags of beans or rice.  Maybe some meat, but not much at all.

But then again, you whiny liberal assholes get mad when we tell them what to get, maybe because making them eat rice would make them "feel bad".  That's a good thing!  It encourages them to get off their asses and GET A FUCKING JOB SO YOU CAN SPEND YOUR OWN MONEY ON HO-HOS!
