Exactly! But, we now reward them with iphones, let them buy booze and cigarettes with their EBT, etc. Giving them the best does not, and will not encourage them to do better and get off the government tit. We need to get back to basics so most of them won't want to stay on it forever. Instead, they will realize that they have to work like the rest of us if they want "more."
But, that won't happen. Leaving things the way they are and expanding the welfare state just breeds a whole new generation of voters. And that is exactly what they want.
