I'll only link to agents that I've known for years and can trust about as far as I could comfortably spit a rat. Otherwise I refuse their invitations.

Pournelle - Welfare States become self perpetuating. In fact, the officials of a Welfare State, perceiving that their jobs require a supply of "clients" needing State aid, eventually become adept at making sure that there are always people in need. To do this, they either adopt policies that promote poverty and dependence, or stretch existing classifications to bring more "clients" into the Welfare system.
