Why does everyone assume he means throw people off of welfare. that is not what was said. There could be less people on welfare because the economy gets better and they get better jobs and get themselves off of welfare.


It is the correct assumption due to the fact that it's completely obvious and the only reason to state it is to mean to throw people off of it.  There was no point in talking about it at all if you include "improving the economy."  It's especially obvious he meant that when the post he made was so short, it's really barely anything.
