The problem is that there is so much wanton abuse of the government welfare system that a large & growing segment of the population are clamoring for an end of the confiscation & waste of their hard-earned monies.

If the poor do not break the law, show appreciation to those who help them, pay back what they borrow, and work hard to make do with the basics they are given freely (harvesting leftover grain in the fields, cooking with “WIC” staple foods), then yes we will be supportive of such a system and do what we can to care for them.
But when the all-too-common reality is sloth rewarded with lobster tails & precooked dinners, while those actually paying make do with a-buck-a-plate meals, then yeah there’s going to be an angry outcry.

Amen to your post.
The problem that I see is that they do not show appreciation. They think they are owed. Someone is working to pay for a strangers food so at least show some appreciation.
This dirtball goes on a rant, which is a turnoff. She could have started with a “thank you” to the taxpayer for the food that she is now receiving, with some bullet points in areas that need improvement.
Instead , she displays the entitlement attitude so prevalent in this segment of society.
