    The greed of this person is beyond comprehension. I believe that this person would allow his food to rot before he would give it to someone who need it. He would justify it with if they would only work they could afford their own food. Smallpox would have never been eliminated without government support so there would be more disease even for those who could afford the proper vaccine. Lets charge to pick up garbage and than pay for alot more police to ensure that the poor do not improperly dispose of their garbage. Lets make everyone pay for their education and let those children whose parent are not resposible suffer because of it. There are plenty of people in the United States who have income many times over what they need to survive. Yet they do not want to part with a small part of it to better themself and the rest of society.
