[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 1237323, member: 2189"] In whom's wallet and bank account do those welfare dollars ultimately come to final rest in? As opposed from whom were they originally taken? If the poor have to spend those dollars to live, they don't have them. If we accept that as true, if we stopped welfare, from a purely profit motive, who would be the real loser in that action? Maybe now we might go the next step and understand who the real promoter of poverty and scarcity really is and thus who the real advocate of public welfare schemes are. Besides, if everyone was working and had jobs, do you realize what the cost of labor could do? Think supply and demand and the effect on price. High unemployment is monopoly capital's best friend. It scares the hell out of the employed and it gives capital a buyer's market so they can crush labor costs. "The system was never broken, it was built this way!" [/QUOTE]
