I think the mentality that someone OWES another anything is EXACTLY the problem with Israelis.
Just because you are an born in Israel or are Israeli doesn`t automatically ENTITLE you to American Jewish or any money at all. That`s what the mentality is with blacks in America. Welfare state, entitlement programs, and the family life is torn to shreds

Tzedukka is a big mitzvah. So is earning a living and providing by the sweat of your brow.Change this stupid mentatlity and make it easier for people to start up new businesses and tell machnas nassa(the IsraeliIRS or Israeli mafia) to take a pill.
