Thanks; it will end when there is no “safety net” that gives them a better standard of living than those working low-wage jobs (currently they end up in the same boat, but the latter are more tired).
I agree. When there are no consequences for poor choices, you get more poor choices, and once you start "helping" people, it's difficult to stop.
Self-interest (on the part of government officials/employees) and sentimentality will probably keep the handouts coming until the money runs out.
