there's nothing inherently wrong with the word "benefits" anyway. It's a positive word. people have come to villianize the word, associating it with those who mooch off the government. But no. benefits are not a bad thing, and people who receive them are not bad people. I agree with the John krasinski meme up there. Rich people are the enemy. poor people are the victims and deserve all the "benefits" they can possibly get.

edit: changed the word "demonize" to "villainize" which was on the tip of my tongue but it took me two days for the right word to come to me. I'm quite pleased with my brain for finally getting it. That's why I'm including this loquacious edit.
