Rather than increase the amount of money given to just sit idle, how about the incentive comes in the form of free tuition at Community College or Vocational Training, along with free or subsidized child care? Raising the amount of assistance given to people not working, only increases the "comfort level", without providing any incentive to do better than just sitting around and taking whatever the government is giving, for doing nothing.
My bad. My ideas go along with welfare reform in general...addressing some specific areas. I do not think paying more to sit idle is a food idea either....or what I meant. But I didnt specify further, so my bad. Yes, welfare should be a helping hand to get people productive again, not a handout.
