None of your problems are because someone else is on welfare, and none of your problems are because someone else is a billionaire.

None of your problems are even because a billionaire is on corporate welfare.

I'm opposed to most welfare programs. They tend to harm even the recipients when taking the long view. We shouldn't ever give billionaires welfare, and the way welfare is structured it tends to make the poor dependent and keep them poor.

But none of that is any primary cause of the stuff most impacting you.

My primary problem with welfare as it's currently structured isn't that it harms taxpayers.

It's that it harms recipients. The very people meant to benefit.

The primary cause of the most important problems in your life is you.

Does, you know.... The state of our currency and economy and society that's effected in some part by welfare payments indirectly affect all of our lives? Sure.

Is it the reason that you personally are succeeding or failing in life? Nope. That's on you, not government or the rich.
