As long as there's a buck to be made off of one demographic or another, companies are going to do what they can to make that buck.

If you have some sort of improvement in mind, us utopian-society-wanting liberals are more than willing to hear about it.
I never said abolish it. I said there need to be changes to stop welfare abuse
