This could easily be a posting in the UK. I don't begrudge paying taxes to help the most vulnerable in society. Our evil British government is targeting the sick, the disabled, those with mental health issues, to pay for the mistakes of the incompetent fortunate.
Here's to a better 2014. Compassion before corruption.
Gary, Unfortunately, the corruption is disguised as compassion. It is said that Walmart "helps" its employees by counseling them to apply for food stamps and other assistance. Of course, all this assistance for employees by the government just allows the business to have more profit. Only a few at the top actually are profiting from the government welfare supplied.

Then, there is the corporate welfare!
