Re: Is Welfare a Right?
Jfrog makes some good points though I disagree that I would not give more if my tax burden was less.
I am not anti Welfare entirely though I question whether it should be run on any federal or even state level. It is best administered by those closest the population in need. The abuse issue is huge, but the greater abuse Is governmental, and occurs through the layered administrative bureaucracy which is built around and thrives on "the poor".
Free education is not a right either, though the Occupy crowd somehow wants to imply guilt on others for the loans they they willingly made.
