I think most people here would agree that they don't want it both ways, they want it one way.
I'll go out on a limb and say that nobody really objects to emergency hand outs for citizens. Nobody wants to see kids dying for lack of medical care, etc. etc.
On the other hand, the hand outs shouldn't be an on-going lifestyle thing.
I agree!
I only would accept a helping hand ,if I really needed it and as soon as the need disappeared ,I would refuse any further help!
Maybe that is just me and I hope the need will never arise!
