Life is terribly unfair. But be of good cheer! It's unfair for everybody.

Its interesting that some people took your question to mean welfare recipients even though you didn't specify. I've worked with homeless people and people on welfare, and let me tell you folks the don't have as much money as you think. The 'welfare queens' who drive luxury cars and make more money than working stiffs was a myth employed by Reagan era Republicans to bring out the racist southern vote (Search the 'Southern Strategy' to learn how racism was used to win the south away from Democrats).
As for wealthy aristocrats, whom I assume the question was actually about since they don't work *and* have money, well that is what the estate tax is for. For each generation of these pimples on the nose of society we take a little chunk of their family fortune and use it to help those who are the actual backbone of our country. Look at it like this. Would you take one of Paris Hiltons 7 yachts away so that a few hundred children of blue collar families could have up-to-date textbooks and qualified teachers? I know I would.

I dont work and have money - but I worked hard for many many years to get to where I am. Try that first. School, hard work, living beneath what you make, no more kids than you can afford. Save save save - dont but new cars every few years, live in a smaller house, if you are not educated, get it now. Dont complain about others. The ability to be able to get there is what makes this country great.

good question...we will never know the answer to it,....my theory is that everyone should get paid the same amount of mony per hour no matter what their profession that would take all of the disgust of many people and encourage most to work

This is called life -- most folks are not born with the silver spoon in their mouth and HAVE to work all their lives to support themselves and their family.

That's a question a lot of us would like answered so that it makes sense. The Bible says, "He who will not work shall not eat."

because they abuse the system and claim to be in need of help while they are able to get a job, but just are plain lazy and don't.
