Just like people on welfare.
And besides that, you are assuming that people on welfare didn't work and pay
taxes before their life hit the skids and they needed welfare.
As far as those people are concerned, they paid into the system while they were working
just like everybody else. But now that they are on the skids they are accused
of never working or even paying a dime in taxes. That would be a lie.

100% agree with this.
I'm quite certain that some of those people on the dole in the US were doing really well 3 years ago and they too wanted to stop all welfare, social security, medicare etc.......
That was before they hit rock bottom. Now they need it to survive. I'm sure they sing a different tune now.
If it weren't for a few government programs in place my family would have been 100% fucked when my dad died in 1969.
His medical bills cleaned him and my mom out and he went bankrupt, then he died. Leaving a wife and two kids behind.
Now............... he was far from a dead beat, he was the first guy to bring VWs into the United States way back when. He was very well off and paid into the government coffers his entire life and luckily when he wasn't there the programs he'd paid into were.
