Welfare dependence creates behavioral poverty. Perhaps President Franklin D. Roosevelt said it best: “Continued dependence upon relief induces a spiritual and moral disintegration fundamentally destructive to the national fibre. To dole out relief in this way is to administer a narcotic, a subtle destroyer of the human spirit.” To become comfortable relying on the work of others instead of your own work will change your character, and the character of the nation. Americans want to give everyone a helping hand, but hand-holding year after year, generation after generation, patronizes, corrodes, entraps.
That the social welfare policies is more caring for the poor because back in the 1930's it was a largely private system of charity collapsed in the face of many because of the widespread economic destitution of the federal government which created the beginning of an American welfare state.

People in authority tend to disregard those who and that which does not benefit them, since the poor did not seem to benefit anybody, people in authority found them useless. (documents 2,3,4) Emperor Charles V had said in an imperial decree for the Netherlands in 1531, that the poor should be helped enough to have the power to survive on their own and not constantly giving them alms (Doc 2). “Many errors and abuses will result, for they will fall into idleness” (Doc 2) Charles V had stated that those who constantly beg for food or money take advantage of the kindness of the European population which will cause them to maintain that lifestyle of only begging for someone to help. Since Emperor Charles V is someone who has to give orders and have
The question many people ask, should people on welfare be tested? First off, what is welfare, welfare is financial support that is given to the ones in need. The government has created many welfare programs, for example, TANF, Medicaid, Childs Health Insurance Program, Food Stamps, Supplemental Security Program, Earned Income Tax Credit, Housing Assistance and many more programs. Federal government will provide the funding, but where does the federal government get the money from? The federal government will get the money out of the tax payers.
Food stamps are government provided subsidy vouchers or coupons utilized to purchase nutritionally adequate food. These vouchers are provided to low-income individuals and households as a supplement to their income to assist them with affording these purchases. The federal government aids and pays for the Food Stamp Program currently known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Managed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) through the state welfare offices, SNAP is one of the major offered nutrition assistance programs available.
The Welfare Reform is a program that was set up to aid and provide public assistance (Opposing Viewpoints). This type of assistance aids families who are in need of funds due to no income or very little income. Over the next years, the Welfare Reform Act has been slightly changed. Some changes have been an improvement to the program, while other changes did not make an impact on the individuals who receive this form of assistance. Critics of the welfare program have insisted the programs hinders people who receive this form of support.
However, if people can’t support themselves they should wait on having children until they can support their children and themselves. “A startling 38 percent of all children 5 and under in the United States were welfare recipients in 2011 (Jeffrey).” These parents do not have the money to raise their children on their own so the parents are receiving money through the children to help raise them. Some people on welfare are having more and more kids so that they will receive more money from the government. The government should not keep giving people money every time they have a kid, or the government should put a limit on the amount of kids welfare recipients

THESIS: As a product of society’s “equal” meritocracy, we must find a scale for our actions by comparing our successes and failures to others, creating status anxiety, resulting in our idea of success being relative to our peer’s success. We base our own self worth and value too much on the outside influences and how others view us. We can no longer look in the mirror and see ourselves as we are, we unconsciously compare ourselves to what is “perfect” is based on ideals from our friends, family, and the media. We are constantly being presented with the image of perfection and the steps and rules needed to achieve it.

Social Problems in Societies Social problems are issues which are considered to affect majority if not all members of a society either directly or indirectly. Whenever people come to live together in a social setting, conflict arises from their differences in opinions regarding political issues, religion, ethnic issues, cultural practices and other health and hygiene issues. In such a situation, we can say a society inevitably develops social problems. The various social issues present today vary from society to society, and as such, we cannot say that all societies face similar social issues.
