I think it's a little more complicated than that.

In Nebraska, most ppl who receive assistance are white and have at least one job. Just that their job does not pay a living wage

No I do not agree for a different reason. You are placing those against welfare in a false category. I am against welfare because i believe it can hold people down in poverty and sometimes occurs for more then one generation.

It assumes people don't have a right to have money

That's not the argument I would make.

Disagree
Many, a lot, a significant % but not everybody.

I think more people would approve of welfare if it were run better. There are so many welfare cheats, that it tarnishes the program.

Some LIVE on welfare for many years. That is total bullshit.

There should be a limit on how many months you can be on welfare and your amount per child should go down as you have more children. 1-10 2-18 3-25 4-30

To some, the argument against welfare is that it, in many cases, doesn't work as the safety net it was intended to be. I don't think that their are many that everyone on it is lazy.
