There is an entirely different way of looking at it, a way which is far more in keeping with the underlying natural law idea of what government is, and which is far more consistent with the idea of government as enshrined in the US Constitution. Welfare and unemployment benefits are NOT granted from the largesse and goodness of the government, but are rather offered BY THE PEOPLE who pay or have paid the taxes. The government is the mere agency which does the handing out ON BEHALF OF THE PEOPLE. So it is entirely consistent to receive what is offered via the agency of the government as an entitlement granted by THE PEOPLE whilst at the same time deploring many aspects of what the government of the day is doing and stands for. No inconsistency there, and no hypocrisy either. fx |

No inconsistency there, and no hypocrisy either. Only We the People never gave the power to the government to redistribute wealth for any purpose. Thomas Paine was an advocate for such systems but admitted an amendment would be required to give the fed that power. Such an amendment never happened. All entitlements are unconstitutional and are an abuse of government power an therefore theft through misappropriation of funds. The congress has no grant of authority to offer such things on behalf of the taxpayer. If you are confused on this point, please read the federalist where they make it very, very, clear that the power to tax is NOT a grant to use that tax for any purpose considered "general welfare" - that was how it was explained and how it was ratified. Explaining an agreement one way to gain consent and then claiming it means something else for your own personal agenda is immoral and wrong - hence Democrats are always an advocate for such misinterpretations and usurpation of power.

Welfare is a democrat thing and it is corrupt as hell. There should be no such phrase as "generational welfare". If your family can't find jobs in an entire generation, fuckin starve.
