A few years ago during the Welfare Reform push, the suggestion was made that all able bodied recipients needed to perform some sort of public service (picking up trash, cutting weeds, etc) for their continued benefit. The howls from the left about “returning to slavery” and “forced labor” were deafening. The success of liberalism is defined by how many people they are “helping”, instead of by how many people no longer need help.
