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?

BTW, if you robbed someone like you say you would have, you would have been thrown in jail where you belonged.  You seem to act like there would have been some justice in the act.  You would just be a common criminal, and worthy of nothing more than being locked away. 

However, I bet you wouldn't have been that stupid, you seem like a bright guy.  I bet you would have gotten a job in a warehouse or a car wash and paid your own way thorough, with HARD WORK, not FREE MONEY.
