WHO PAYS TME BILL?
The latest proposal in our welfare society is that there should be
a basic guaranteed income for everyone. Not, mind you, for ,the .people
who work like dogs and still can't get along brat for. everyone.. That
includes the lazy and the greedy.
There is no denying the fact that a society as .intelligent • and
affluent as ours cannot permit the' less: fortunate among us to suffer
actual want (although'' we are still doingso in too many instances).
Ho wever, every one of the benefits we extend to the unfortunate must
be paid for by those who, for onereason or another, have adequate.
incomes.
Many, perhaps the majority of 'those in need deserve our eon -
sideration and assistance. We are thinking here of the sick, the widows
with small children, the -pensioners who live on a' barely marginal in-
come, Then, too, there are those members of oursociety for whomwe
have -fa ed -to -provide -ed , s as our. • ' an pupa-
laton,_T_heyiive a poverty_beca___ nsp they-ha.ve not -bad anything -like;

equal opportunity.
When the balance sheet is completed, however, we find that the',
avera _ e working man is not ,only paying for, the normal . services pro-
vided by government but. is also supporting his ownwife and fainly
and about six . other people as well. He contributes to family allowance
even though his own children are .grown and gone; he, aids in all the
welfare schemes such as old age security, the taxes which support
'homes for the aged, orphans, widows, etc. In Ontario' he pays for con-
siderably more than half the cost of operating our hospitals, .over and
above, the premiums to•OHSC: He donates pretty liberally td the can-'
vaisers for heart, lung,: cancer, muscular dystrophy and a dozen 'other.
voluntary health organizations. He coughs up vast amounts for edu-
cation, whether he, has children in school ' or not. And more, more,
more.
Iris -not a question of whether or not the working man is being:
fairly treated it is simply a Matter of how much he can continue to
pay. A guaranteedannual income would be fine for those who •cannot
do anything to help .themselves, but it . sounds like a pretty soft life
for those Ike 'to,take' it 'easy.
