I think it's the wording from my first post (all the focus on "lazy" - bad choice of word I know. Completely sidetracks my real point and can't edit the post at this point to word it better.) and sometimes that's just the way these things ebb and flow.

I grew up with help (food stamps, dried milk and government cheese and all that) and think it is needed... to an extent... but I also think that the incentives create a "wall" that's hard to get over where as you make more money, you make little more and lose a LOT of "benefits". You have to go from, say, $20k/year to 50k/year go not "lose" by working more - and that's a HUGE hump that a large number of people look at and say "Why?".

But I digress.

I'll make similar statements in different threads and get up voted or downvoted at seemingly random. The internet gods just aren't happy with me today.
