OT Cary, caring and trying is great if it effects the help or changes intended, but is harmful when it makes matters worse. The Social security system and all these "entitlements" programs have created a bloated monster of our fedral government in way never intended; a safety net is fine, a hammock does harm. Most of the money fed into the government is used up in the bureaucracy and only some gets to the intended needy, and waste and graft is rampant in large uncontrollable programs. Charity and aid at the local level is efficient and manageable. A nation of pioneers and immigrants, the idea of self-sufficiencey for oneself, family, and community has been replaced with a Big Brother nightmare.
