A post a few days ago concerning the idea of social programs as "Safety Nets" got a couple of interesting responses. Hopefully the authors and any other interested parties can elaborate...

Here's the gist:
"Embrace welfare ideals to make sure that every child has certain fundamental basics: food, health care, education. Then get libertarian: turn everyone loose and let them compete."
Provide the bare essentials for people (no luxuries and not too comfy) while also giving them a system in which they can go out and strive for more through their own hard work and smarts."

How about a few more thoughts along these lines? What would happen in such a system?
