Provide more public transportation.  I know it is a popular myth among the silver spoon crowd, but not every poor person has a car.

Provide health care and day care.

Provide birth control.

Basically instead of giving people money for not working give them support for all the things that is keeping them from working.

Raise minimum wage.

Help the people who are working.

Everything that you mention, is already in existence.

What else should we do?  Perhaps we (the taxpayers) could also foot the bill for free motivators, cheerleaders and life coaches?  You know, to encourage them to take advantage of what's out there, and give them positive reinforcement that they are doing the right thing.
