Eugh. With the downvotes, really? How naive are people? Yep, I understand what you're saying. And that's usually how it works. But f# me if it doesn't work like that a lot of the time. And my point is (and I think what the other person who started this chain means) that when people who could have enough and not take advantage of the welfare system (like many many people do where I live) do take advantage, the hammer comes down and less fortunate people miss out.
