Unfortunately, personal responsibility and accountibility has gone the way of the buffalo head nickle. It would be a whole other thread to discuss what's happened to cause this, but if people (including businesses, politicians, religious leaders, etc...) just thought about their actions, things would be a lot different. Not enough people think about how their actions affect themselves or others. They also realize that if they screw up, there'll be someone there to bail them out or defend what they've done.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Or if they decide to sit on their ass and not work, the current administration will take care of them. |

Yes, assuming we're not talking about the part about me being smarter   
Sorry.
Do people abuse welfare? Absolutely.
Does Obama being more Liberal mean people assume they get to work less? That sounds like a personal decision that's impossible to reconcile without specific data. Could it happen? I suppose so...
Here's the irony.
How much taxpayer money do you think goes towards genuine welfare abuse, compared to the amount of Federal money that sucked by Corporations through corporate welfare and loopholes?
In the end, are they any better than the iconic welfare queen?
