I don't understand why these people rally against social programs that can help them in their hour of need. What do they have against being their brother's keeper?
Granted, there are people that abuse the system, but that should not be enough to condemn everyone to a life of misery when bad times hit. Are they so arrogant, so blind that they believe that bad things cannot happen to them as well?

“We can never undo what we have done. We can never go back in time. We write history with our decisions and our actions. But we also write history with our responses to those actions. We can leave the pain and the damage in our wake, unattended, or we can do the work of acknowledging and fixing, to whatever extent possible, the harm that we have caused.”
