Here's a touchy subject. Let's discuss!
Be civil. I'm sure there are some people who are benefiting from welfare on these forums. Please choose your words carefully, and don't attack others.
So what do you think about American Welfare?
Personally, I think it needs some change. Now, I'm not accusing anyone here, but I don't like the idea of some bum sitting around and using my hard earned money to fuel their drug habit. I know someone out there is doing it. But I also understand that there are people who are going through hard times, and need some help.
So here's my solution: I know it's not perfect, I'm not some expert on how politics work, (I'm only 17...And yes, I do work and pay taxes) but I'd like to see something a bit like this happen.
So there it is. I know, it's not perfect, and I don't expect you to agree with it. And no, I don't think that everyone on welfare is abusing it, I just think more attempts should be made to deal with those who are. I think the government should try harder to get people off of the program. I want to know what you guys think about welfare. And remember, be civil, and respect the opinions of others.

- Who is getting my money?
- How are they using my money?
- Do they need more help?
- Dealing with abuse
