For the record, I am not in favor of this because of privacy issues, but I do think that the shame associated with being on welfare is gone. Without a reinstitution of shame for being on welfare, however, there is no hope of removing welfare, as has been discussed ad nauseum as a precondition for solving the immigration issue.

Is there a way to shame moochers that is acceptable to Objectivism? I think there is, but I would like to hear what others say about it.
