I hear about "social responspility" from both the right and left, but letting that many people crash out that hard in such concentrated numbers is asking for trouble, if not a full scale riot.

Not only would this add to the cost of a program that is I feel is admistered at the wrong level of government (I think it ought to be left up to the member-states), but would add to the size/scope of that government at all.

And face it, people would come up with a way to cheat, this government program.

A cracked-out government program that is choked up with red tape and buecracy will probably not be cured by more levels of red-tape and buerocracy.

spell check.
Shut the system down and it's instant Anarchy...just add water.

probably...what did that have to do with my point that adding layer upon layer of government programming won't solve anything. I think it needs to be re-built, I never said wellfare should be done away with.
