Alexa, you said..

To a certain extent I believe we need a national policy to address the problems of the people in our society who will not or cannot work in the private sector. It is in our national interest that everyone work or be taught to work (or forced to work, to put not to fine a point on it.) I happen to believe only the government possesses this coercive power

I understand what your saying. So you support the presidents "forced volunteerism"?

Of course you don't do you?. See here in lies the problem. Welfare and programs like it were started with your noble idea. Unfortunatly whenever you start a program with all the best intentions, it grows into something like we have today. This is a simple fact, of any and all government run programs. So in the end you will have what we have today!
