I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.
"Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the Government take care of him; better take a closer look at the American Indian." - Henry Ford
Corruptissima re publica plurimae leges; When the Republic is at its most corrupt the laws are most numerous. - Publius Cornelius Tacitus
Only a little less talking than the hotheads that call and write these folks all the time with their wants and desired for other peoples' money and wealth.
They are only responding to the bribes of your neighbors and the companies you constantly finance.
Those companies and especially your neighbors want your money and it is easier to get the govt to allocate it to them vs. earning it or taking it directly.
