Your question is answered by taxation. Generally the more money you have the more taxes you pay, that's the way the tax code works (more or less).

So do random people have the right to take money from someone who has more than them? No

Does the government have the right to tax people in order to provide services that help everyone in the country? Why yes, they actually do

Are you really going to argue that our federal government is lacking the resources to do this? Or that it even does this at all with the majority of its budget?

Do you know how many healthy able bodied young people are on government assistance? There is absolutely no reason for a healthy young person to be on welfare. The government shouldn't be a safety net for shitty decision making. I have no problem with it being a temporary safety net for unexpected and extreme cases. Thats a public good.

Explain to me why we should raise federal taxes at all anywhere in this country before looking at waste and bloat.

Nope. If you want what I have then work for it just like I did and stop being a piece of shite.

I’m all for welfare for people who truly need it. But don’t you think the system has been taken advantage of by lazy asses that truly do not need it? Aren’t the abusers the real problem here?

So your answer to the abuse is more taxes that will lead to even more abuse?

Nah, frick that
