   ML>then you are misreading my writing... in fact, i have not "espoused" an   
   ML>opinion in this discussion... i asked a very simple and plain question   
   ML>that no one has yet to answer... there have been replies but no definitive   
   ML>answer to the specific question of how it is abuse...   
      
      
      
   It is abuse in the same way that a car pool to and from work has one member   
   who does not own a motor vehicle, and contributes no money to the gasoline for   
   the commute.   
      
      
   It is abuse in the same way the people working in an office contribute to a   
   coffee pool to support the coffee and donuts available for all, except one of   
   them never contributes, never `makes' the coffee, never makes the donut run,   
   only drinks coffee all day, and eats donuts.   
      
      
      
   A person who works for less time than what qualifies as a `quarter' for the   
   purposes of Social Security, but then scams the system to recieve a life-long   
   check in the mail every month without ever working `for' that check.....that   
   is abuse.   
      
      
   As a grown up adult (I assume), I'm surprised someone has to explain that to   
   you.
