You don't know many intergenerational welfare recipients, I'm guessing. They usually have spotty work records and are content surviving on the margin. Many in Appalachia were subsistence farmers prior to welfare and at least realized that there was no substitute for feeding oneself. Many do not realize that today.
Gee that sounds like a politician, shows up when he feels like it (except re-election time)Gov. hand outs and accountable to no one, especially the courts
