Frank, you beat me to it; right on the money (oops! as it were) regarding the insignificant sums involved in welfare fraud/bums compared to the sums wasted elsewhere- timely note would be the current Republican Pork-A-Thon in Congress (yes, BOTH parties are involved, tho the Dems. are a bit less hypocritical.

Also, the tax burden in the U.S. is the lowest of any of the first-world (and possibly some second-world)countries, and the proportion of the GNP spent on education in the U.S. compared to other countries should make us ashamed.

Troll & Co.'s anger about may be justified- but its directed at the wrong segment of society!- its not the poor who are preventing them from "keeping what they make".
