Well, it will, at least, raise their self esteem!! THAT should warm the cockles of any liberal's heart.

Yah, here's a rosy vision of the future: legions of poor slobs everywhere dying of starvation, with the last words from their cracked lips being: "The one thing that makes it all worthwhile, that makes me so proud as I lay here dying, coughing my lungs out and bursting my hot-air-ballon-sized-from-starvation stomach, is that I never took any public assistance."

Paul, In a perfect world they wouldn't say that … because there would be no public (government, tax funded) assistance to be had. -sja

OK, fine, they'd just die quietly, far away from your neighborhood, and when they did die, a few other near-death homeless people would earn a few cents to buy a banana by carting away the body. Paul – wearing my black construction paper funeral suit

They can die while jumping up and down screaming about if they like. You have the right to the pursuit of happiness. You do not have the right to happiness. You do not have the right to steal the work and effort of others. If you want to crusade for their benefit, if you want to agree with how badly they've been victimized and how you know they tried and it's not their fault, and that you feel their pain, please do so … using _your_ funds. -sja
