> It is that people want the poor to take care of themselves. > I know I get jealous when I think of a certain girl I know who dropped out of high school and had a few kids and collected welfare to pay for it. I worked hard to pay for my college education, now I'm in part paying for her bad decisions, my share of her support could be spent on a widget I want instead. And what percentage of the poor make these "bad decisions", and what percentage don't? If you're truly jealous, try living on welfare.
