I'm not saying that they're not necessary or good in some cases but they interfere with the normal supply and demand which is the basis for economics.
Remember the old adage - Sink or Swim? Many people of our generation worked multiple jobs to get ahead, or worked long hours to keep heads above water.

Now, it is the responsibility of the government and US - the taxpayer - to support people who don't even want to work ONE job. And they get food stamps, etc. etc. while there are signs everywhere saying HELP WANTED.

The He!! with that!
