It takes a special kind of warped mind to see through this fucked up, acid-trip prism of reality....where people are GLAD to be receiving desperation level 'benefits'?

Otherwise, the dead are dying in vain, the heroes risking all for them are doing so in vain and we will be back here again too soon to ponder...
