...and yes, liberals, that includes big business leeches too.

The best way, IMHO, is to quickly adopt a libertarian economic policy:

That can only happen when government stops allowing these folks to leech. As long as the handouts are there people will take them. Yes I agree this includes bigbusiness

It happens when there is nothing to leech.

When the government stops the handouts, there will be no leeches.

Agree, pretty simple solution indeed.

As long as the govt owns just about everything, this isn't changing. People need to take back ownership. (TRFs make sense in this regard.) Those leeches are simply govt bailing itself out and rewarding itself.

Yes -- but they vote. And many leeches from other nations are coming in to leech -- we're getting to be the world's flop house.

Enforcing our illegal immigration laws would be a start.

Work camps is a good idea. Even liberal FDR didn't just pay people to lay around and do nothing, he had those work camps and some very good projects were accomplished in those days -- even Conservatives have to admit that some of the Depression era projects got some things done.

Work is good. It's better for people to feel they've contributed something, people actually do better when they feel productive.

The worst thing is just to hand people money and encourage them to do nothing with themselves.
