What does "lazy" have to do with anything. How about taking the responsibility to look ahead a bit and not overspend/over-borrow? As far as I'm concerned, not only can many stay in their tents - I hope they OWN those tents and we aren't paying for them. You ask what has happened this country? Seems we, the public, are being forced to take responsibility for those who refuse to do so, for themselves. I've read the actual details on many of these so-called sob-stories. One couple was making $150,000 per year. They took out two mortgages on their home, spent $50,000 on a camper-trailer, and $40,000 on a new Ford pickup truck. Also rang up $45,000 in credit card debt. Now, one lost a job and they are being foreclosed on. So, what's your answer? Penalize others that looked ahead and lived within their means to pay for idiots like this? I have the same mindset with unskilled autoworkers who were overpaid for many years. They had ample opportunity to put money aside and have no excuses for still having mortgages and many toys not payed for. And yes, I'm sure there are some bonifide cases where somebody saved money, put down a substantial down payment, bought the house to live in and NOT as an investment - and is now in trouble. But, most are not that way. Baling these people out is just paving the way forward for more excess and more lack of responsibility. By the way, any one of those people and/or families can leave their tents and come here to New York. Live here for 30 days and then get free rent, free food, and free dental care, and free medical care. And, I'm helping pay for it while I get none of those things unless I pay for them.

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
