Too many people spend their whole lives living off the system. This is a MAJOR drag on the economy. The taxpayers should not have to support these people their entire lives.
Recipient’s should be limited to a lifetime benefit of no more than 2 years with one possible 3 month extension. Quarterly drug testing should be required. Recipient should be required to show proof they are seeking employment every 3 months. Benefits should be capped based on the COL for that location. Aliens SHOULD NOT be able to receive these benefits under any circumstance.
I think it should be on a scale system. I had to rely on the system for a little bit and if I made only 5 dollars extra I was cut off. That is why nobody wants to advance.
Fully agree with this. Welfare was designed to get people back on their feet in short time. Watching people live off of it is tough to watch. Perhaps if we can get a significantly improved economy it wont be nearly impossible to get by and people will begin to fall off of welfare anyway. Drug testing should be required but good counselors should be in place to help as well. Counseling in America has its own topic of discussion so i will leave that alone.
