Well no system is perfect, there will be people who abuse whatever they can and it is hard to say "alot" of people abuse the welfare system when in reality we really don't know for sure, I think if we eliminated welfare and other assistance we would have people living in shanty towns and sleeping in cemeteries like in Brazil and Egypt, where those countries don't offer any assistance.
Agree on all points.
"Alot" is a great term. It's as vague as you can get.
Alot = /= more than 1/2?
alot = /= more than you think should be?
alot = /= most?
When people work the system, and you see it, those people stick out in your mind. Not the 9 others that are couting pennies to make sure they have enough for the bus.
You are correct and I venture to say most people who say "alot" of people on welfare abuse it they tend to not think highly of people on welfare regardless.
