Essentially, we need to avoid changing policies with the specific intent of supporting bad planning/decision making. Resources are not infinite, and if someone chooses to have children early, or use drugs [excessively], to the point that they cannot support themselves, we should not provide a safety net. It only encourages irresponsible behavior.
That was the essence of my response. I am not a social planner, nor a political science major, thus I cannot save the world. Sorry. You'll have to look outside the P99 forums for salvation.

The most comforting words to these guys are "I'm from the government and I'm here to help."

People like them desperately need an over bearing State to control other people's lives. They believe that through the power of government, they can force you to conform to their ideals. What they don't realize is that if you can create a State that can destroy someone you hate, for not accepting your ideals, that same State can and may some day destroy you too.

History is rife with examples of this sort of backfire. Useful idiots throughout the ages have believed that they would ride the wave of Big Gov, only to find that they are crushed under it all the same.
