Actually, Harry is knowledgeable enough to know that general welfare is
a thing of the past, and that most of those receiving assistance are
children. I don't know what the current stats are, but some years ago,
most of those receiving AFDC were white.

It's almost impossible to get general welfare these days if you are an
able-bodied, able-minded adult, and there's very little available for
the physically or mentally challenged, either, other than the pittance
from Social Security disability.

We're a nation that doesn't give a crap about those of us in trouble.


Bull****. Take a look at charitable donations, especially in times of need.
Take a look at the outpouring of support for the families affected by 9-11
or from recent hurricanes.

Perhaps you don't give a damn about folks in trouble but the majority of
Americans certainly do.
