There are some who are cleary deserving of these many programs.....there are some who are only marginally deserving of these programs.....and there are some who are inappropriately milking the system....more effectively addressing the "milkers" would imho go a long ways towards reducing the frustrations of the people that pay for these programs....the problem of course is...Who is it that gets to decide if someone is clearly deserving, marginally deserving, or undeserving??????
