Well...... MY health care comes from the V.A. so I guess I'm one of those "moochers" who take more than they put in. (health care and the tests/medications I need are WAY TOO EXPENSIVE imho)
I have never taken unemployment insurance btw,even when I worked for a salary. If I didn't save enough during the year then I worked all winter.
No welfare either.
Other than that I think benjibear hit the nail on the head in his reply. In times of economic turmoil OF COURSE you will have more people needing help/assistance than in times of prosperity. As I've said before, I would much rather 10 people who don't need help get it, than to have 1 person who DOES need it NOT to get it. Maybe you ought to read or re-read 1 Corinthians 13 again :
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profits me nothing.
4 Charity suffers long, and is kind; charity envies not; charity braggs not itself, is not puffed up, 5 Does not behave itself unseemly, seeks not her own, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil; 6 Rejoices not in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 Bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Charity never fails: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. 9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. 10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. 11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. 13 And now stays faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
An end, even with terror, is better than terror without end. F.Neitzsche
