Dear Editor,

A big problem that America has today is laziness. I think this is a problem that needs attention. It will continue to get worse if we don’t do anything about it. About 100 years ago laziness was never a problem, people worked hard for their money and if they didn’t, no one else would help them out. Today there are all kinds of support like WIC and welfare, I think some of these programs are good but it’s not always fair because hard-working people are the ones paying for it. Some people just continue to have kids to get money so they don’t have to work. I feel like America is just going to get worse. We depend too much on other people to go and get the job done. We need to start being more responsible and take action.
