So let's just stop all these failing Federal programs! We have grocery stores in St. Louis that are actually paying $500 sign-on bonuses for people to work for them - as baggers, no less. There will always be a certain percentage of the population who CHOOSE to not work and elect to take from the other citizens for heathcare, food, housing, etc.... Stop the programs - Manage the exceptions.
