Isnt asking for help from the government just admitting you are a failure?

Either a failure or lazy.  Not much of a difference though.  Some people don't want to get educated, don't want to work over time, don't want to do anything to earn it.  When the Democrats make welfare so easy to come by, why should anyone work?  Theres no incentive

No, it was a cry for help.

Hey There pingavar, I have a question for you. Don't you think the government has enough control over the people? Have you ever heard the phrase "God helps those who help themselves" ? We are our brothers keepers and as such we should all help one another in each of our needs regardless of the beneficial return to our selves.          \nDid you know that all of the services that the government provides are paid for by our taxes? So, what is the problem with people helping people and leaving the government out of it and letting them do the job of running the country and defending our country. It won't hurt us to use some of our time and resources to help the less fortunate.  God Bless you, and check into the actual functioning of government before you try to lay every thing at their feet.

No one, that's what got us in the mess in the first place.\n\nUnfortunately I'm not sure any outside orchestrated help will succeed.  Sometimes we need to let things follow their course, no matter how hard.\n\nIt needs to come from the people themselves.

I'm not sure, but i think they need it.\nThe government should pay for treatment.\nHey "Wise guy", everyone is not like you.\nIt doesn't mean they are weak.\nYou just might not have a heart to think of terrible things that go on for this country.

The worst thing people can do is expect the government to take care of them.  As seen in Katrina they will let you down.  People need to take repsonisiblity for themselves.

PEOPLE to support? you mean, financially? why dont you go to your government, or any organization who provides financial support to people who have low-income and unable to support their studies but are deserving to. i believe they have the program for scholars to continue their studies.

Sorry for your problems, but that's what you get for expecting anything from socialist governments, and why it is better to provide for yourself rather than expecting it to be provided for you.\n\nBecause the government that has the power to provide you with all that you want, has the power to take all that you have.

The idea of public assistance programs is great, as there are some good people who are trying and just need a little help.  However, the programs are not proving effective.  The criteria that one must meet to become eligible is too easy, and there are no requirements for a person to try to find work.  I think they need to be more strict on the people who are not working, and provide assistance to the ones who are truly trying to better themselves.

If a country is not willing to help themselves then what will we be fighting for.  It is actually more difficult in some cases to determine if they are not willing to help themselves or if they actually can not help themselves.  Some countries are actually incapable of helping themselves.  Africa sticks out in my mind when speaking of this.  Not to pick on Africa though there are plenty of others however that was the first one that came to mind.  Bottom line for me though is if you refuse to help yourself then there is nothing we can do for you.

you cant because it is nonsense,\n\nthis is what i would say trust your self\n take desisions for your own life ,stand on your own two feet,look inward and learn to take responsibility for your own existance ,instead of of seeking support from other suyposed authorities like ,society ,or God ,or the Government.

Yes.  It's a not so subtle way of telling certain people that they are not good enough to make something of themselves.  That they need government handouts.  This secures votes for certain candidates.
