        The result will be more crime as people become desperate-which will result in more people in jail which costs what? 3 times welfare?

        This just feels too much like an attempt to reduce our excess population but when people see their children die from the lack of social safety nets they will revolt as they did in Syria and are doing now in Iran. If past is prologue there will be fighting in the streets.
