Re: These Tax rebate cheques
I want to agree, but at the end of the day I think people have to take responsibility if they don't cover themselves for these kind of risks. Same goes for being brought up poor and with little chances in life - if you want it badly enough you'll make it happen. My husband and I are from poor families and nobody was lining up to help us. We got where we are through hard work and sacrifices.

Yeah what a joke ha ha ha my IQ is 140 and my kids qualify for free school meals and if I were a citizen I would qualify for welfare. The reason? Catastrophic illness. We have medical insurance/sickness insurance but they wormed their way out of most of it all leaving us with big bills and no real income or the means to fight them in the courts. So yes wanker there are intelligent people on welfare.

There are always exceptions to the rule, but I'll stick to what I said that most people on welfare are the sharpest tools in the shed. Dumb parents produce dumb kids and it just goes on and on will the help of the government.

I have come across the same thing, remnded me of Please Sir, who was the main charachter who could not do maths, but was awesome at betting odds.
But works both ways, I can think of several people I was at school with who went to Oxbridge, but would have no clue.

We had insurance from an employer who's one of the biggest in the industry, we had sickness insurance. The illness was very sudden three weeks in hospital six weeks of out patient treatments ongoing meds. all supposedly paid for until we started getting the 'Sorry we've rejected this claim' letters.

I got less, did better at school than you and have a better job, bigger house, smarter kids and a sexier wife. However I still have some empathy for people that are thrown a curveball in life. Now what ?!
