No one wants to pay for joe the plumber that doesn't want to work, however welfare programs ARE nessesary. Sometimes people get down on their luck and do need help. Alot of people do abuse this system...
What WOULD make sense, is to take these welfare people and put them to work on stuff like road construction, etc. Don't give them money, give them a low paying job that's unpleasant so they will be encouraged to find other work.
