Welfare was never meant to be a lifestyle or career, it's designed to be a stepping stone for those that are able to work. The left uses it to get votes and a tool for fear mongering

That adults is a pretty big piece of the pie, let's start looking at them, see how long they've been on welfare and why
How about you actually post something that proves your claims instead of just making accusations based on a know biased web site.
Most don't actually come out and say it, but when they use code words like "entitlement" it's easy enough to see where they are coming from.
Walker Says Entitlements Should Be Cut to Reduce Deficit - Bloomberg Business
YES.
Automated assembly lines, self check out lines at Walmart and fast food joints. Soon self driving cars, busses and trucks. There isn't going to be a whole lot left for the working poor to do to earn money.

Benefits for disabled persons were added to Social Security in 1956 under President Eisenhower. By 1967, Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits were extended to dependents of disabled persons, and to widowers of disabled persons, when the disabled person was qualified for collecting Social Security Disability Insurance benefits.
When Was Disability Insurance Added To Social Security - 2015
The program has been expanded beyond sustainability, that's been proven time and again by it having to be propped up so often. You don't think there is a need to find a long term solution?
Nice chart, why is unknown twice the size of foster children? We Conservatives would pretty much like the unknown portion brought to zero and out of the chart. But when we try to do that we get you assholes screaming we want the foster care system shut down.Welfare was never meant to be a lifestyle or career, it's designed to be a stepping stone for those that are able to work.

We all know that taking care of children, the disabled and the elderly is more than just feeding them. Those that take care of two of the three know how much a hundred dollars of food stamps means.
All this GOP ranting about food stamps. Do they believe children, the disabled and the elderly don't deserve help? Do Republicans think they should just quietly go away?
If this Admin had done ANYTHING significant to strengthen our economy - specifically the job market - there wouldn't be a continuous growth in SNAP recipients.

Disabled vets make up a large percentage but RWs say they don't deserve help any more than children do.
We just went through this with Mitten Romney 47% BULLSHIT...
We don't have a 'gargantuan welfare state'. America's safety net is below almost every other industrialized country in every measure. America more closely resembles the likes of Mexico than a modern First World industrialized nation.
We heard the ignorant rant of Mitt Romney and his 47%...
If there is a citizenry on this planet that does NOT have an entitlement mentality, it is the American people. American workers receive less benefits, paid leave, health care and take less vacation time than any other people. American workers take pride in the quality of their work and their work ethic.
What Romney said is a gross insult and reveals a dangerous mindset. He reeks of contempt for middle class working people and the poor.
Who are the 47%?
Federal budget and Census data show that, in 2010, 91 percent of the benefit dollars from entitlement and other mandatory programs went to the elderly (people 65 and over), the seriously disabled, and members of working households. People who are neither elderly nor disabled and do not live in a working household received only 9 percent of the benefits.
Moreover, the vast bulk of that 9 percent goes for medical care, unemployment insurance benefits (which individuals must have a significant work history to receive), Social Security survivor benefits for the children and spouses of deceased workers, and Social Security benefits for retirees between ages 62 and 64. Seven out of the 9 percentage points go for one of these four purposes.
80 percent of the workforce has seen their wages decline in real terms over the last quarter-century, and the average household has seen 40 percent of its wealth disappear during the Great Recession. Through it all, families never asked for a handout from anyone, especially Washington. They were left to go on their own, working harder, squeezing nickels, and taking care of themselves. But their economic boats have been taking on water for years, and now the crisis has swamped millions of middle class families. ref ref
