Too many people are taking advantage of welfare benefits, like unemployment assistance and food stamps, by remaining on these programs long-term without genuine need. This misuse places an unnecessary burden on taxpayers and weakens the system, making it harder for people who truly need help to access resources. By setting time and resource limits on welfare programs, we can ensure that these benefits are used as intended—as temporary support during times of need. Implementing these limits encourages individuals to become self-sufficient and preserves resources for those facing legitimate hardships. This approach also promotes fairness in the system, preventing individuals from misusing taxpayer funds. Such changes will help make welfare programs more sustainable and effective for future generations.
