Ted, > Nonetheless, you want them punished for their actions. Is that correct?

No, that is wrong because taking responsibility is not "punishment," just like dodging responsibility is not "justice."

> How do you distinguish the ones who need only to be punished from the ones who are lazy and incompetent....and presumably should die because they are so worthless?

Now you're just putting more words into my mouth.

There is no talk of punishment here, nor is there any presumption on my part that they should die.

How do you distinguish between those who were clearly irresponsible (e.g. Octomom) with those who were responsible but fell on hard times? The answer is that you can't, at least when it comes to bailing them out. That's a fact of government.
