well, as the kanoi next door used me in a late post, allow me to respond.
First, I never called them parasites- not even bank kvetchers. As I said in another post, my own flesh and blood is in a kollel. But, in line with thousands of others, we feel that
1) not everyone should learn forever on someoone else’s chesbon. We will accept ‘asoroh batlonim” but not everyone.It will save countless millions.
2) Defending one’s own brothers and sisters is a mitzvoh and everyone should particiate. How, and how long ,can be open to debate, but to reject any attempt at “sharing the burden’ is egoistical and smacks of a very dismssiive atttitude to other Jews.
Lastly, it would ser e every chareidi well if he cound go out and work to feed his family. After all, it is only a mitzvoh d’oraisa..
