I don't want to be the one to give you the bad news but it was President Bill Clinton who finished up the work on Reagan's welfare reform program from the 1980's. Clinton named it the  "Welfare to Work" Program. Thus able bodied men and women were eliminated from welfare benefits, single men and women with small children had to be actively doing work searches and report them to welfare and find jobs to receive  any benefits , most who got welfare were the seniors who could not live on social security alone. Benefits like food stamps were reduced to a family of 4 to a few hundred dollars a month. I can spend that in one day at he market. I was working then and was involved in my job in helping people filling out applications to collect the social benefits. Your rant is interesting, what does come of your mind?  Especially when it is obvious that you are oblivious to any facts.  LOL
