Purchasing power comes from more efficient/better production, which is a product of capital investment. These welfare programs take that capital investment OUT of our markets. This crushes purchasing power..the very thing the "poor" need the most.

"Government is good at one thing: it knows how to break your legd, then give you a crutch and say 'see, without us, yoi couldn't walk'". Nothing illustrates this more than unemployment "benefits".

This makes absolutely no sense. It's as if you are just stringing words together trying to bullshite your way to a point.

If the "poor" have no money, then they cannot buy any of the goods you claim will be inexplicably produced so efficiently in the absence of demand. Everybody needs purchasing power, but without money to utilize that power it is irrelevant.

You have an idea of how you want the world to work, and you want it so badly that you ignore common sense and logic.
