123dsa:
The problem here is that local governments usually can't afford to cover the requirements of welfare programs on their own. They need assistance from the state and federal governments to provide adequately for those who need it.
As a related aside, did you know that the current administration has slashed aid payments to the states in order to reduce government expenditures? Meaning that an ever-increasing burden is being placed on states and municipalities, as the number of jobless steadily grows and the economy, if it doesn't spiral endlessly down into a black hole, just barely manages to remain functional.
The individual welfare system is being intentionally broken for ideological reasons. But corporate welfare? Alive and well, thanks.
Disgusting.
