That's a very republican thing of you to say, heh. See, you haven't been in the position of being poor, to the point where you don't have food or electricity. I've seen documentaries on poverty, and it's not a good fucking thing. I'm sure if it was you in one of these families, perhaps one of the poor children with multiple siblings, you'd like it if the government paid for some food for you to eat.
Just my two cents.
