Question

I am looking for a current political issues regarding welfare for my research project. I was wondering if you know any current problems or can give me some ideas on the issues of welfare that i might be able to research on. I must be able to find a primary source, a secondary source, an internet source, and a political cartoon for the topic.

Answer 1

don't know of any links but here is an idea: welfare rec. get PUNISHED for going to work.. When I was working I would make $2.00 more in raise and food stamps went down $5 and sect. 8 rent goes up $5.. that's already $8.00 in the hole.. They want to get people to be self sufficient but they make that impossible...You could also research how many people actually do NEED welfare that are working full time.. by the time a person makes even $10 a hour, pays daycare, rent, etc.. there is nothing left. Everyone says that welfare rec. are lazy and don't want to work.. I worked from the time my son was 3 weeks old and there is no way I could have lived without sect. 8, food stamps, medical care.. My medicine was $1200 a month, daycare was $300 a week.. I cleared $ 700 every 2 weeks.. see the problem,,
