So you did get help from someone. It's ok to seek help when we need it. After all, we are fallible human beings, and sometimes even the best of us need help. You got to get that help where you find it.

Sure, there are a lot of people who milk the system. Any time there is any kind of system in place, people will try to exploit it for selfish gains.

One time I got laid off a job, so I applied for food stamps and unemployment to keep me afloat while I looked for other work. After about 1.5 months I found a good job. I didn't need the food stamps any more, so I called them and told them to stop sending them. The next month the food stamps arrived any way. It took 4 months of sending them back and letters and phone calls to get them to stop sending them.

I guess the people working at the food stamp office have a vested interest in having people on food stamps.

The point is, when people need help, people should get it. The people who get the help should try their best to once again become self sufficient, if they are physically and/or mentally able.
