    One of the reasons Id look to the government when times were so hard that I couldnt make ends meet is because it is that same government that, whether I want them too or not, takes a proportion of my money when I do have it..
    People can justifiably expect something back..

    This is not a validation of people whose sole purpose is to 'sponge' off the welfare system and not work. Then they are stealing my money, and the sooner the time comes when they put brick walls round those sink estates to keep these trash away from the rest of us the better.
    Unless they're just poor.
