No really?  Thanks for enlightening me about that.  A few times I thought of
quitting my job and going on welfare so that I could finally afford that
Lexus.

Over the years, I had reported people but they know the system so well it
did not matter.

I personally feel that if you are getting money from the government (such as
welfare) it is perfectly fine for the government to expect something in
return - some kind of effort on the person's part to better their own
situation.

I will not apologize for not looking at the world with rose colored glasses,
nor for being a cynic.  I saw some pretty heinous shit in my 17 year EMS
career (14 as a paramedic, 3 as an EMT).  See enough bad shit for long
enough, even the most optimistic among us would start to have doubts.
