i think all of these issues are interesting to consider. i often ponder these things.. what are your obligations in society towards others besides simply "not breaking the law"?
should those who are more productive support those who aren't?
can we blame every person who is less productive than others and hold them 100% accountable?
when is someone responsible? when aren't they?
the discussions are basically trapped in a near infinite loop of circular logic where emotion usually grinds reason into submission and the lowest common denominator seems to win most of the time.

Take a trip to Goodwill and you will find many mentally disabled people working their asses off, enjoying it, and in general being good, friendly people. Go anywhere else in the city where "regular" people work and see what kind of response they give you.
If you want to start whacking people that aren't "productive", why don't you start with the people that actually have the ability to be productive and yet they still sit on their asses all day versus the people that don't have a choice.
