There are people we don't need.
Is the house on fire? No. I don't need a fireman.
Has someone broken in? No. I don't need a policeman.
But if the house is on fire or I am locked in the back room, I damn sure need me some fire and police response!
Yet we habitually underfund these organizations to the point where they barely function doing the things we want done.
I notice that we're unquestioningly funding a large group of people we'll never need.
What's that old bumper sticker? "It will be a great day when our schools have all the money they need and the Army has to hold a bake sale to buy a tank!"
How about:
"It will be a great day when our fire departments have all the money they need and welfare people have to work to buy ANYTHING." I think it's especially apt because I've noticed a trend towards the people most likely being on welfare are also the largest consumers of emergency services.
Double irony, a working person who is no longer on welfare actually generates revenue!
