I don't think we have the right to decide who is a "chronic bad decision maker" and who is not. Does it matter? What exactly qualifies as "waste"? Do you have the right to decide what's wasteful and what's not? Ultimately that's what got us here in the first place: a welfare system that's woefully inefficient (because there's so much bureaucracy and red tape associated with using the money on the "right" things). Maybe we should just allocate a fixed national budget for social welfare, and distribute it equally to all takers. If you want to blow your $500 a month on booze.. why not? It's still good for the economy, and who knows, maybe you'll end up not blowing the money after a few months of agonizing hangover.
