I'm not saying we should take them away, just pointing out that there is still fraud and abuse even after they moved to a debit-card system. Public assistance and welfare is not an easy problem to solve. No matter what system we come up with, those who are lazy or have convinced themselves or been convinced that they cannot or should not work (for whatever reason) will find ways to use and abuse that system so that they can remain in their state of helplessness and blame anyone but themselves for their situation. Many others will step up and use those resources to better themselves and become self-sufficient. Unfortunately there will always be leeches though, no matter what society does to try and help them. -Justin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:364380 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
