Not trying to start a pointless argument - just pointing out that the way the world works, the way the world keeps working, is for those who have to help those who don't. As one of the beneficiaries of a net federal support system, I think it's important that you understand that, and that maybe the flow should go both ways when necessary.

No sooner did I post a compliment about your communications skills than you wrote something I can't follow. Could you repeat your point so I can understand it better?
