Why does the government insist we need to be taken care of and people come running to agree?

You obviously watch too much Fox News. Either that or you have no clue. I had to retire due to 2 heart attacks. I would rather work, but can't. I survive on Social Security and a small amount of disability. I have just enough to pay the rent (3 room efficiency apartment), the utilities (managed under $100 each month), phone and internet ($75), and if I am lucky there is $20 left over to wash clothes and buy toilet paper. If there was one ounce of care provided by other means, I would not be running to the government (go wait in line at the food stamp office every few months); but there is no other help for the elderly, handicapped, and homeless in this country. Why don;t you pitch in and help somebody instead of pointing a finger?

Since the 1970's the government has been attempting to make a dependent entitlement population, that will go along with whatever the Government want to do. That means the destruction of the government of the people, by the people and for the people that Lincoln talked about, I have a problem with th government "taking care of me" because that means I have to accept what ever they dump on me- Like Obama Care

And yet you don't complain about them "taking care" of business do you?

The rest is just you ranting at easy targets, people who are disabled, the elderly and children. Those who can not work. There are very few able people on welfare.

Wait you think is lucrative to be on welfare, thats hilarious
