Why should my hard earned money go to those less fortunate?

You need to learn some shit instead of regurgitating right-wing talking points.

Myth #1: Welfare encourages people to not work.
One popular right-wing talking point is that there are all these jobs that aren’t being taken because people would rather take a welfare check than get a job. But an overwhelming majority of welfare recipients work—according to a 2014 study by the UC Berkeley Center for Labor Research and Education, 73 percent of welfare recipients are working at least part-time.
When looking at the numbers by industry, half of the nation’s fast food workers and nearly half of America’s home health care providers are receiving public assistance either in the form of food stamps, Medicaid, Temporary Assistance to Needy Families, or the Earned Income Tax Credit. 46 percent of childcare workers rely on welfare, as do one-fourth of adjunct college professors.

and so on.

I have an acquaintance who regurgitates this shit, even though he's pretty fucking lazy and collected unemployment when I first met him. It pisses him off to no end if you point out that he's a hypocrite.
