  • Too many people believe that welfare is killing the economy and it isn't. Modern states need a social safety net. The real drain on the economy is money that is being wasted in gov programs, the military, financial aid, the war on drugs, our gigantic police forces at every single gov level... Welfare is a very small part of the gov and is the least of America's problems.

    I used to really hate welfare too, until I needed it. I was on it for almost 2 years due to an injury. It's not cake.

  • You are so correct!

    Waste in government has to be at least 25%.

  • If you're not talking about a socialist take over, then no general welfare is not a big deal on the economy. But what schiff was emphasizing was that welfare kills the incentive to work.

  • I don't think so. Welfare is humiliating and gives you far too little to make anyone but the most meager person happy. It's barely enough to feed yourself. 102.50 twice a month and 147 in food stamps and you have to be medically unable to work.

  • Who was that professor asking the significant questions?
