To convey the deleterious impact of social programs such as welfare, unemployment, food stamps and others is to ask the following question of a food stamp recipient? What would you think of a vendor that you pay with food stamps and the vendor provides nothing in return? The transaction between you and the vendor is the same as the transaction between the government and you. You, the food stamp recipient gets nothing from the vendor in return for your food stamps. It is the same nothing that you gave to the government to get the food stamps. If you complain about having paid taxes, remember so did the vendor who is probably still paying taxes along with every other working citizen.

Empathy without responsibility is pity with or without charity. Just a thought, not.
Or, it is a mirrored room of irresponsible people? Metaphorically, a masquerade ball.
Think responsibly. Emotions can drive one to nowhere.

I agree with everyone, not just anyone, who agrees that it is possible for anyone to make nothing from nothing of everything.
This perspective is prevalent in society. Just ask everyone what they are "up to".

When I attempt to engage my mental blender in reverse logic even then I cannot come to a conclusion of which came first, the mafia (figuratively and literally) or government (mafia wanna be figuratively and literally). One common thread shared is a history of selling insurance(s).
Note: either sequence implied is only my guess.
