Anyone no matter how smart can become a burden. We are supposed to help each other through difficult times. I’m surprised you can’t see how such a nanny state program would be abused.
The wards of state are ALREADY nanniefied. Why do you think they vote D? It’s still a plantation. The work has gotten a lot easier though. Just pull a voting lever every few years. The rest of the time who cares about their conditions. So long as they make more D voters.
