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?

Sorry for my habit of constantly using so many addendums to my posts, but I think there are some good people who use welfare as a safety net.  Only thing is, they don't stay on welfare long enough to become the majority.  And probably, people that able, fore-thinking, and smart, could have gotten by without it. 

I have a whole lot of anger at these people, lot of bias, because they're usually the ones who pitch a fit and call the manager in my line if something goes wrong (have I mentioned I work at wal-mart?).  There is a consistent pattern, from my point of view, of the dumbfucks making life hard for everyone else.  I really really hate stupid people.

And when we feed them, it just keeps them poor; they never have any incentive to get off of welfare, they just get so fat that they can't work anymore then draw social security (don't scoff; I've seen it happen).

My issue isn't neccesarily with welfare.  It's the fact that we even need it.   That humanity can be so pathetic.  I look at these people, and feel pity, I really do.  But I don't think that feeding them unconditionally is helping them.  I actually think, now this is going to sound horrible, that letting them raise kids who can grow up to be just like them is unfair to the kids.  

It's just impetus for me to get off my ass and get my education so I can be one of the giving, infinitely kind souls with tons of money like you.
