Because of my bleeding heart tendencies I don't want the gov to "rescue" people because they aren't good at it and usually just create more dependency.

That's the challenge here. I see the broken intensive structure of our current welfare system that basically punishes people financially when they start to move ahead. I see the multitudes of programs with as many different administrative bodies trying to govern them and know our current method is far from optimum.

Yet I still support some level of safety net. You give people more freedom to take a chance when there's a net to catch them and a much easier path to recover when shite goes south.

So this "bleeding heart libertarian" wants to improve the incentive structure so there aren't so many traps when you start making more money, and streamline the program into one agency/administrator as well as many of the programs.

Now will we ever get there in practice? Let's just say I doubt it.
