I think if we did away with welfare al together then people would work for a living

I'm not sure if removing welfare entirely would cause all people to work for a living. Eliminating welfare could lead to increased economic inequality, as some individuals would be able to live comfortably without the aid of welfare, while others would not have a reliable source of income and be unable to meet their basic needs. Additionally, while some may choose to take up employment when welfare is no longer available, not all individuals in need of financial assistance will be able to pursue these options due to lack of knowledge or physical/mental health restrictions. Thus, while I understand your sentiment that welfare may not be the most efficient way to support those in need, I believe it is essential that society strive to create a safety net that can cover those who are unable to work due to uncontrollable circumstances. We must also work towards ways in which we can provide additional employment and skills training to those who are struggling to meet their needs.
