Those who are saying MYOB are on it tgem selfs. Theres no need to seem hostile about it unless YOUR offended. Ijs...
Was there a point to you raising a month old thread or did you just feel like trolling and couldn't come up with an insult that was good enough for any of the dozens of current discussion threads on this site?
By the way, it's *themselves*, *There's or There is*, and *YOU'RE or YOU ARE*. I'm assuming that Ijs is due to either you being on a smartphone or a complete moron. I'm sure the most likely answer is that it's both.
(tl;dr being a troll is no excuse for poor grammar and spelling)

Not sure where you get your facts, but entitlements will be the reason we default on debt.

Do we just let them starve or (possibly) breed discontent/violence (and then require even more expensive prisons)?
lets face it, the mose useless people are on this forum.
Worlds biggest welfare recipients are the Englands royal family.
I happen to know some people who have been welfare recipients, and no they did not exaggerate their circumstances or stay on welfare or scam the system
I agree with you on your major points, but you are actually wrong about England's royal family. I used to think the same thing, but please watch this video - I had no idea that this was the case, and it actually shows that the royals in England are giving a ton of money to the people and not the other way around.

Or is it just easier to pay them a few grand a year to essentially make them go away and leave the productive parts of society alone, and try and do the best we can with their kids.
IMO, liberals have trouble admitting that some people are just fucking useless, and conservatives have trouble admitting it's easier for society to just pay them off to leave the rest of us alone.
It doesn't help matters when conservatives start sharing (often quite racist) stories about welfare queens that really don't exist.
We probably spend more on tracking welfare fraud than on tracking government contracting fraud. As a PP mentioned, drug testing welfare recipients is a money sink.
