...and this, that is the basis for all of your reasoning, is absolutely ridiculous.
If you wanted people not to starve, you would be completely ok with giving FOOD to those who need it rather than a check that instead goes to cell phone plans, TVs, and rims.
Simple question. Yes or no. Do you really think that 47% of the population would be "starving in the streets" without the government check that they get?
"Starving in the streets" is nothing more than a 100% bullshit dramatic scare tactic used to support buying votes and distributing wealth. If you really think these people are as helpless as you make them sound, you need to get off of your island for a minute and take a look at reality.
