There is a solution suggested in a book I heard of once.

He who does not work should not eat.

Yes, a few qualifiers are appropriate, but we should get rid of the federal Dole. And the ferral Bushes. And any interactio between the feds and anything that might be regarded as a point of light.

“He who does not work should not eat.”

Not exactly. It’s in II Thessalonians. It allows for people who aren’t able to work.

” ... this we commanded you, that if any would not (WILL NOT) work, neither should he eat.” People who make the choice not to work should not eat.

Yep. And our early congresscritters and the president at the time understood the constitution didn’t give the fedgov the authority to hand out tax money like a charity. In fact, for the instance mentioned, they ‘passed the hat’ and contributed out of their own pocket. Which is what these commiecrats should be forced to do if they truly ‘care’ so much about the welfare types.

Agree, and stop shoveling money for a 4-6-8 year college lifestyle on a worthless degree.

There's an awful lot of fat people around not working, living large in government paid housing, driving nice cars and with the latest iPhones that need to be cut off the government dole and told to get their fat asses to work or they're gonna starve.

Come to think of it, that'd be a pretty good way to combat the obesity problem here in America... Just sayin'.
