My "little" tirade

When did it become okay to milk off of the government? Let us say, for example, that a person, for these purposes a girl, had no high school diploma, no GED, and no general clue. This person works part time at a dead-end job. This job has no health insurance option. So, this girl decides that it is a good time for her to go off of her birth control pills and, subsequently, gets pregnant. Duh.

She decides that the government owes her because, after all, it is there, right? She is on public aid, WIC, and some sort of health insurance. Who pays for this? Oh, that's right. WE DO. But she is owed, right?

Aargh. I don't really know what to say. The attitude through which ANYONE thinks that his/her government owes him/her BLOWS ME AWAY.

I mean, there is a big part of me that thinks that someone owes me -- the world owes me. I followed all of the rules. I did what I was supposed to do. I worked and took loans. I got degrees that are all fancy-schmancy. I worked hard enough to get, virtually, straight A's. So, who owes me?

And, if someone were to "pay up," who would it be and where would that entity get the money?

I am angry. Don't tell me I have to have health insurance. Who is going to pay for it? Where am I going to get the money? I can't get private insurance because of MS, so I have to go on Medicaid (however that is spelled). Are they going to give me my medicine so that I can afford it after I have paid the premium? Really, how are AVERAGE people going to afford this fargin' mandate?
