I bear no malice toward someone who is poor or down on their luck and using food stamps in line in front of me. I bear GREAT malice toward those who use the food stamps (or vounchers, or WIC coupons), then reach into their wallet to use cash to pay for their cigrettes, candy, and beer while they yak on the cell phone, then go get into their car. Your Barney-like view discounts the fact that half of this country is comprised of inept, lazy slugs riding for free on the labors of others.
