I don't agree with long term welfare either. I believe in helping people whom need help to get on their feet (ie someone whom is willing to help themselves) I also have no issues at all helping the disabled or elderly. Those are the types of people whom every civilized society should try to help.
I do not however condone helping habitual welfare queens or people whom just expect handouts. I've always felt welfare should be time limited and not a never ending thing.
I do however see the problem with that line of thinking when kids are involved, which is why we have the welfare queens that we have and I don't know of a solution around that. Hence the reason with the current system we are damned if we do and damned if we don't.
I do think that people on welfare should have to do some sort of work or civic duty in order to receive it. Start making people clean streets, clean up the beaches, parks, do janitorial work at public buildings ect..ect to get their welfare check and you just watch how fast they go get a job..
