The problem that I see with welfare, or public aid, is that some people take advantage of it. It is meant to improve the financial well being of individuals who are in a state of financial crisis. Unfortunately, some people purposely keep themselves at a level of poverty so they do not lose this aid. It is definitely true that some people are in a current position that require the help of the government.
Another problem that I have witnessed with a few people who use public aid is what they purchase in grocery stores. It should be used for necessities such as milk, fruits and vegetables, bread, eggs, meat, etc. I have seen people use Link cards for fillet mignon and this is not right.
If people stay on welfare because they are lazy and don't want to work it is not fair to the people who work two or three jobs just to keep themselves financially stable. It also isn't fair to the people who truly need the aid.
