I'm sorry, I meant that's what THEY are saying, I don't really believe that.

Then just steer the argument to that point and bombard them with facts about welfare being more work then people seem to think.

I've heard a lot of arguments saying that welfare tends to lead to the "welfare mother" phenomenon that Reagan made up. Are there any good studies that apply to that concept? I'd also be interested in studies that look at straight up welfare fraud.

Although pretty outdatted read the poverty and welfare section of the Liberal FAQ linked in the OP.

There is a lack of welfare information in this thread.
Anyone have study/argument for "Welfare was never intended as a career opportunity".

Anyone have some good links for facts and statistics about welfare? Especially if it breaks down differences between TANF and SNAP? It seems that's one of the biggest hot button issues around the office. It seems like all of the studies and statistics I've seen were all done in the 90s. Thanks!

Everyone I work with knows the poor take TANF and never work again. Something against this would help a lot.
