[this line intentionally left not blank]

The only problem I can see with having the taxpayers earmarking
where their money is going is this:  How many taxpayers are going to
support Welfare (etc)?  I know that I feel that the entire welfare
program is poorly run, and that a lot of poeple are getting money,
MY MONEY, that they don't deserve.  Unfortunately, all those welfare
reciepients [sic?] are voters, and there sure are a lot of them.
What politician in his/her right mind would do anything to risk
losing that vote?  Why do you think there have been so few welfare
reforms in the past?  (By the way, I'm using `welfare' genericly.)
