    None! I prefer for the government to stay out of my life as much as possible! I can better decide what is best for me and my family than can a bureaucrat

    My job, pretty much. Plus I receive the benefit of knowing that I'm helping so many lazy people stay alive and live comfortably with half of my paycheck.

    I'm getting my disability check every month. I one that I work for, its my money.

    I'm not asking nor will I ask for the state to help pay my way through life, unlike some welfare people who sit around eating bon bons all day.

    The only fair thing to change would be, get rid of welfare fraud, or better yet get rid of the entire program. Let their families take care of them instead of the state.If you run out of food go to your nearest food pantry and get help.

    Nothing. My taxes are pretty much just like a recurring membership fee for being American.
