How to organize poor people other than giving them welfare and other "free" stuff at our expense? This is a very good question, and it's worth debating it.
Obviously giving people endless free stuff and welfare is not good for society, it creates irresponsible people, and it breeds carelessness and lazyness.
A society safety net is always a bad idea, because the world is dangerous, and it gives you a false sense of security, at other's expense.
Now don't get me wrong, I don't have poor people, and I do want to help them, but the current welfare system neither helps them, nor it helps society as a whole. Welfare has created more poor and irresponsible people, not to mention criminals, than anything else in history.
It is this simple. And I don't want people to not have food to eat or shelter above their heads, these people need to be taken care of.
However, after they got the basic necessities to get started, they should start finding a job. We don't want people hanging over us, after they got their basic boost, they should start getting their lives together.
In many cases homeless people after being accepted into a charity housing service, they moved out back to the streets because they felt more comfortable there. Ok, well if this is the case then why should I pay for their welfare if they refuse our help to become integrated into society. Oh but they do want that paycheck coming regardless... well sorry then, bets are off.
This is the problem, because if you really want to help a person and show him the way out of his problems, he will refuse it, and rather hang on your like a parasite, instead of getting his life together and becoming self-sustained.
And this is the problem, we can never get rid of the government until people have this slave-master mentality. People much rather be comfortable slaves, than uncomfortable free people. We need to change this!
