There are, unfortunately, those who do have that sort of attitude here. However, most realize that stuff happens, especially during the last decade and a half where people have been "downsized" for no fault of their own, and charities and welfare programs are well supported. The people who are stigmatized are the ones who abuse the system, the "welfare as a lifestyle" types, those that mooch off the system perpetually and never look to get back into the workforce, even though they should be capable of doing so.
