I can't feed my own? Hmmmm. I'd be inclined to get more work to earn more. Or get a better paying job. I'd just use the magic powers that I have that allows me to 'know' that someone else doesn't deserve welfare to get me that better job.

Gov't assistance is not an incentive to work, I agree. However, as a human being, the object isn't to be found acceptable by society, but to survive. Gov't assistance is one form of surviving just like being employed is another and criminal activities are yet another. Technology leads corporations to cut the number of jobs they offer (think auto industry at the beginning of the 20th century where cars were completely made by people to today where it's basically people supervising machines who make the cars). So we have a society that (in order to be found acceptable) we are required to be servants to a company or at the very least to customers. If we have the technological capacity to produce goods without the aid of human labor (the unemployed can still eat even though they didn't make any food) then maybe we should be working on a way to allow people to survive without being considered parasites to the employed. . The system we are in makes the employed indentured servitudes of the whole. Currently less than half of the U.S. population is employed with the top 10% taking the massive proportion of income. It isn't just the unemployed or lazy individuals who take advantage of the employed, they're just easier to blame. However, it's the rich who decide that the U.S. needs to bump up its budget on the military which ultimately raises taxes on us. It's the lack of intelligence from an underfunded school system that allows people to be taken advantage of by advertisements deliberately made to get a response out of a customer. . The bottom line is that yes, I am tired of being a working member of society while those who don't have a job are paid tax dollars. However, I'm more angry at the rich people for allowing this to happen. If they can keep the unemployed at least satisfied, then the only people who are truly angry at the system is the less than half of the population who is employed and who makes less than the top 10% of the population combined.

For every dollar I am taxed 1% of it goes to welfare, 30% goes to the military, I would rather not pay for wars.

Are you tired of paying corporate welfare to businesses run by inept managers? There is nothing wrong with them some intelligent decisions, and maybe new leadership couldn't fix, and yet they fail to work. The sad fact is that billions of dollars go to corporate welfare and pennies go to people. And more than 50% of the "lazy" people on welfare are children. Lazy Children who won't get a job and support themselves....
