I vote they can die in a ditch somewhere. I've been a functioning addict of one form or another for years. If a lazyass like me can do it, anyone can.

Now, Felix, the fallacy of the reasoning here is that your taxes don't really go to pay for welfare. 100% of your income taxes goes to pay the interest on the national debt. It's the homage we pay to the bankers who run the Fed Reserve, who we borrow our money from (when we could instead choose to print it for free).

The great secret of America is we have enough sin taxes and excise taxes to run every one of our social programs and the military (which is paid for by corporate taxes) without collecting one penny of personal income tax.
