That said, I took one of those 'Deadbeat' refunds, since it was there, which makes me a hypocrite, or at least conflicted. But I'm in good company with John Stossel, who reported himself as a welfare queen for taking offered government money to repair his beach house, saying he was against it but he'd be a fool not to take it when offered.
