Just when I was beginning to think that my anti-statist tirades of the past few posts were perhaps best characterised as slightly over-egged, viral-induced hissy fits, I read this at Setting the World to Rights and instead thought "How right I was - and I'm not feverish now!"

They say they are against forcing people to work. As far as I know, they are also against welfare, so how can they be truly against forcing people to work?
