Now for the words that seem to irritate every con on the forum. Welfare works!
As a concept, I agree with it. I think the real question is about implimentation and where we draw the lines. It can be a good thing or a bad thing depending on how it is done. I suppose this makes it comparable to just about everything else.

Maybe you could help draw the lines for us regarding the welfare you support and where you think it does not work.

Also, while we are at it, what do you guys think of the Republican Party's corporate wellfare schemes that are giving away hundreds of billions to not so needy corporate interests.

FYI The Medicare Reform Bill gives me all the ammo I need for my point on corporate welfare in case anyone wants to rumble.
