In case you missed it, when you give someone money to buy food, what you do is encourage them to stand in the handout line instead of actually working." Given that no one is talking about that but you, it isn't a factor. What has been talked about is re-distributing the tax burden. Which isn't having handout lines. "I think they covered that in your first psychology class." Never had one. I have always focused on real science.

Do you know anything about behavioral analysis? In case you missed it, when you give someone money to buy food, what you do is encourage them to stand in the handout line instead of actually working. Thanks to you all.....there is nothing more stigmatized in this country than being unemployed. A guy in S. CA just wiped out his entire family because he couldn't find work for the past 4 months. You people with your false bravado and ridiculous prejudices have set this country on a path that only makes living much more difficult. I wish you all would shut up for a change and start listening.
