I am one of those unredeemed Yankees who is half-living in RDU. My other foot is in Michigan, where the free lunch thing is being wheeled out.
Not only is welfare — akin to a drug — addictive, the offer of free money tough to pass up. In fact, there was precious little opposition when it was proposed in Jackson, Michigan.
