Yes sir I did. I don't buy the whole idea that people who receive the minimum income will do the right thing even if working means being more financially rewarded than not working. And in that scenario the people who work are directly working to fund the non-workers up until a certain point of earnings.
I don't like it. Of course, I don't like the way things are with entitlement programs now either. When my wife and I lived on $500/mo I did whatever was necessary to claw my way upward into a better situation. Including going weeks without seeing my wife and child because of working long hours in an agricultural job as I paid my way through college. If someone is not willing to do that then they don't deserve jack shit from the taxpayers.
Crap. Ya know, BBI -- I realize you are not some dumbass. I'm just a little cranky today because of this damn screeching in my ears -- I shouldn't be arguing with you about this.
