Hypothetically, if the cost of food, housing, medicine, travel & lodging was TREMENDOUSLY reduced for persons having 35+ years of gainful, productive employment, would we see more people entering the work force, and fewer government freeloaders?

No impact at all until you get rid of all the other freebie handout entitlements...

I don't think those who abuse the system think ahead - or about the "big picture" - enough for this to really influence their behavior.

I doubt it. 35 years seems like a very long time to a freeloader.

Trust my Okie, my ex's father (recently deceased) worked 18 years as a wallpaper hanger getting paid under the table with cash. He spent the last 24 years of his life working harder than I EVER have, trying to prove he was disabled. A true parasite.
