Should The Government Cut Back On Welfare Benefits or Should They Be More Generous?

[Wildman]

...making a fool of himself again?

again and... again and... again and... again and... and always.

i am really surprised that libertards survive day to day!!

Until we bring some employment opportunities into those communities we can expect higher welfare

Maybe you should educate them RW and tell them to vote republican, he'll it is working for the poor ass in the past red states today...

The welfare system is way too large right now, and discourages work by the generous payments it gives out, and the way it is structured. If we were to cut welfare benefits, the government would save money through less welfare funding, and earn more money through income taxes since more people would be getting jobs via the discouragement of living off a super small pay-check.

Everyone knows welfare has a work requirement. Oh, wait. You mean Republicans didn't know? Come on, to be that ignorant you would have to be a tard. It must be a mistake.

everybody knows obama gutted the clinton-era work requirement when he first got in office./

oh wait you didnt know tht? you'd have to be a leftard not to know!

Why ask people to work where there are no jobs

Kind of like fishing in a dry pond

There are plenty of jobs. All you need to do is go get one.

Maybe if they stopped burning down potential places of employment.

You cant force someone to open a business in the ghetto,and you'd have to be an idiot to do so.

Then you need to be prepared to provide welfare in those areas

 

[Meathead]

Why, can't they drive or take a bus to work in another community, or are those millions of people commuting everyday just suckers?

No,the residents of those areas need to take the bus to areas that have jobs.
You do realize most people dont work within walking distance of their place of employment right?

Uhmmmm ...... Could it be those low information voters vote for democrats for the past 100 years like in Chicago?

You know the place with a 10.25% sales tax?

Pick one.

Not long ago, Cleveland was ranked the poorest city twice in three years. We've even led the country in depopulation. If you can easily find a job here, you can find one anywhere.

THAT title alone should make US ALL SICK

And the more lazy bums, the stronger they become.

Commie Care was not designed to help people get insurance, Commie Care was designed to create more government dependents. The more government dependents, the more likely Democrat voters in the future.

Now they are bragging about 15 million or so people that gained health insurance. Who could possibly celebrate 15 million more government dependents? The Democrats, that's who.

As with most things, The Truth probably lies somewhere in the middle, between Unchecked Capitalism and Nanny Statism.

Tell ya what... we can cut all welfare, except for Short-Term Emergency Assistance and Disability Assistance, with a cavet about the timing for doing so...

We can do that 48 months after we bring the last Republican-outsourced Production Facility back from overseas...

We can do that 48 months after we bring the last Republican-outsourced Job back from overseas...

We can do that 48 months after we've imposed large tariffs on foreign goods for a while, to give our resurrected manufacturing and production base a chance to get a running start, after rusting-away for the past 30-50 years...

Timed that way, we're sure to have enough Domestic Jobs, so that there is no excuse for not having one.

Bring back the jobs, and bring back the factories, and you've got a deal.

Until then, there are a fair number of good folks out there who need those Safety Nets, and a deal will continue to elude you.

The fact is that most working class people work hard, save, and still depend on SS, medicare, and medicaid to survive when they get older because wages in this country are low low low except for a few. The answer I guess is that very few people should get married and have children but then some would complain that the population is declining quickly.

1. I vote for replacing welfare with microlending that comes with training, education, or financial planning to pay back the loans so these can be paid forward.
2. Taxpayers could be rewarded with deductions and breaks for investing in microloans and/or providing some of the financial and educational mentorship as community service to uplift others out of poverty (or recovering from crime, abuse, or medical crisis that caused them to get into debt and dependency for help).
3. If people don't agree on what to fund, I would organize this by party. So if parties want to support people in or out of prisons, or who owe for immigration law violations, they can opt to participate and develop programs to help those in need. While other parties who don't believe in enabling certain behaviors can set up systems of tax credits for investing and lending capital or training help to people who DO want to set up schools or work-study programs to help rebuild and restore communities in need.

So either way, people can either fund the support programs they want and/or get tax incentives to build their own programs, or could receive tax breaks for lending money and investing resources in other people who want to do this work to set up and manage programs.

And both party lines get the policies they believe in by free choice, and aren't forced by law to fund one approach or another. All people should be free to pick the programs that seem to operate the most effectively and help more people out of poverty.

Maybe just put requirements on the handouts like Governor Paul LePage of Maine did last year. Seems like a win win for all

"Maine passed a measure last year that requires recipients of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistant Program to complete a certain number of work, job-training, or volunteer hours in order to be eligible for assistance. The new requirement has resulted in a dramatic decline in food stamp enrollment, resulting in a logical win-win for all of Maine. At the end of 2014 the enrollment count for SNAP was approximately 12,000 individuals. Now that individuals have to complete either 20 hours of part-time work a week, volunteer for at least 24 hours per month, or get involved in a vocational program, the amount of SNAP recipients has dramatically dropped from 12,000 to approximately 2,500 by the end of March"


Maine Just Put Welfare Leeches In Their Place, Every American Needs To See What Happened Next

Here is the answer:


-Base Federal tax for corporations at 30% of revenue.

-Raise minimum wage to $23.50/hr. Based on where minimum wage should be using 1970-2015 rise in food, shelter, and transportation.

-Eliminate all business subsidies (deductions/write-offs/write-downs) except for employee expenses which are deducted dollar-for-dollar on all city, state, and Federal taxes and fees with the Feds refunding city, State, and fees.

-Companies with 500 employees or less, employee expenses above the deduction are subsidized at 100% with funds usually give back to the States.

-Adjust Social Security and private/public retirement and pension payments using 1970-2015 price structure.

-Remove the FICA limit.

-Back down ALL costs, prices, fees, to January 1, 2009 levels and hold them for 10 years which will eliminate inflation.

-Recall ALL off-shore investments tax free, and disallow any further off-shore investments.

-Make inversion illegal.

Red states pull more welfare than blue states
