Xeno, you and I have more in common than you think. While the welfare money did help some at the time, I think it has certainly gone to far at this point. People who NEED the help are not able to get it because of those who abuse the system, and in the meantime, the drain on the income of those not on the system brings them ever closer to having to be dependent on it themselves.-My challenge lies here: setting aside, for the moment, that our system was improved by repubs & dems in '96, there will ALWAYS be people getting help that don't need it, and people that need help and never get it.-Knowing this, I hope ppl report suspected freeloading (I was required to when I worked healthcare) and if they don't, they have no right to complain. The system works by feedback.-I won't deny a kid an opportunity I had. Many people here want to kill ALL programs as if they are better at catching fraud than the next guy. I'm not so nearly sure of myself.

\"It is, brahmin, because of attachment to views, adherence to views, fixation on views, addiction to views, obsession with views, holding firmly to views that ascetics fight with ascetics.\"
