If that's in reply to my comment, and not Alex's, I agree, most of the people who hold this philosopy--especially the most rigorously idealistic ones--have never had to face the choice of living on the street and going to bed hungry every night or applying for government assistance.
Well, it was to her comment, because she doesn't live here. But anyone can read and reply. :-)
I'm sure somewhere there's someone who lived in desperation, who received assistance, who doesn't want others to have access to those resources. But I don't want to meet them.
