Welfare in America almost never reaches the pocket of the person “receiving” the assistance. Nearly every “hand out” is just a subsidy for people with way too much money. For example, SNAP is farm and grocery store subsidy not a disenfranchised individuals meal ticket. The food has already been made and processed. The government just makes sure farmers don’t lose money on their surplus or scale back their yields. Grocery stores don’t have to spend time and money throwing away literally tons of food a month because there’s enough customers.
On average, an American only spends 3 years on welfare. States with additional support that time is much lower. Under a year in some progressive states. Can you guys which states have people on welfare forever? At the end of the day states that help out spend less because they actually turn people into productive members of society.
Finally, did you know that between China, India, and America we produce enough stuff to feed, house, clothe, educate, make safe, and provide community for every human? The only reason we don’t, “fuck you.” that’s why. Your position is ghoulish at best and down right stupid and evil at worst.
You’ve confused the maximum possible benefit with what people actually get. Have a look at Texas’ calculator to see how it works: https://www.snapscreener.com/screener/texas
By the way, it’s called SNAP, not “food welfare”. You seem proud of your ignorance on the topic, so I don’t imagine you’ll bother looking into it more, but I’d recommend learning a bit more about SNAP. Might help you learn empathy along the way
