Yea I agree as well but there are indeed some people who simply cannot work. My wife cries sometimes about work. She's a nurse and when she worked at the hospital she was on the heart floor. She'd see people with all kinds of problems and no family. I remember one guy was crippled with RA (like my father) and he had no family. They had all passed away and he never married if I remember the story correctly.
Anyway he was in there for a month or 2 with complications and my wife said rarely did he have a visitor. Maybe once or twice. I think we should take care of these people as long as they need. The people like you are talking about remind me of some of my family who are quite capable of working yet they sit around on welfare and ask for money. Sad.
