So, the world owes you a living and the property of others is yours.Well, you fit right in.Cows get cared for, cats and dogs get cared for. Listen here before you try to bad-mouth someone who is trying to help others. I have never asked the government for anything. I'm going to school and working two jobs. I've put in 24 hours in the last 48. I haven't asked for anything from the US Government for myself.

Unfortunately, there are people who aren't in a position in which they can do this. There are people who plain and simply are not capable of making it. There are people born into a socio-economic class that is so weak that they really cannot climb out of it. These people never get a shot.

The primary reason for people to do poorly in school is socio-economic status; one third of people in the United States who are living in poverty are children. Don't let that be a statistic for you; let it sink in. Let yourself understand that there REALLY are children starving on the streets in your own city. There really are. These children should be given food and water and clothing and housing and an education. So should their parents!

Rather than accusing people of trying to feed of the system, how about showing a little compassion. You will wind up with free-loaders, but you'll also save lives; that's what it's all about.
