America's Biggest Threat

[header]

I have no problem with handouts if it is done in a way to promote the advancement of people through their own actions.

I had a shitty work ethic and didn't do well in school. My experience is limited and I have three mouths to feed. All of this is a direct result of my own actions and has nothing to do with how much money the government takes from me or doesn't give to me. I don't take handouts from the government because I take them from my father with the desire to better myself in the future and get off of that dole.

It is honestly a better way for me since he is willing to do it. I go over to his house and hear about how I need a better job and to get some money and start to save because he's not always going to be around. This improves my desire to get off of that dole. He only gives me enough to scrape by it's not like silver spoons and shit.

Naturally everyone doesn't have this luxury so if the welfare system were set up in a way to encourage people to better themselves in a period of time with penalties for lack of improvement than that would be pretty sweet.
