The human race has always had some who are weak and some who are strong.  So when you have a capitalist society with lim ited number of jobs and resources the weaker ones are going to be the ones that don't have jobs or can't take care of themselves.

If cutting off benefits would suddenly mean that these people would all be able to get jobs and support themselves then I would be in favor of cutting off benefits.  But the fact is that even if everyone of these people worked as hard as they could they still would not have well paying jobs.  there simple are not enough well paying jobs for everyone to have one.

So the question is "What do we do with the poor?".  To we let them suffer, starve, and live in unhealthy filthy conditions, or do we provide them with a place to live and some food to eat?

I'm not in disagreement and I don't think too many conservatives are in favor of outright cutting all benefits. However, there needs to be SOME effort in trying to get the system to where it's only helping those that actually NEED the help.
