So what is your solution in terms of the mentally ill and/or homeless people? Should everyone be provided with the daily medication they need? Free of charge? That would be GREAT in a perfect world, but for myself, I cannot in good conscience agree to let my tax dollars pay for that ( whoops, I'm not cause I'm not in America anymore)  but you get the point. |
But there are an awful lot of people who don't work but they're not bums. How would you police it so that it's only the 'bums' that don't get away with it?
