Decreasing people on welfare doesn't mean we're improving the states. It really depends who you're cutting when you cut on these programs.

Also your statement makes little to no sense at all. Just because a candidate is in office when things start to get better doesn't mean the candidate is responsible. His opponent in four years could very well be much more appealing.

 I would argue getting people off welfare does indeed improve the state of things. Just because a candidate is in the office when things are starting to get better does not mean he is not responsible for it.


If you take people off of food stamps who need it at least temporarily, you are hindering their ability to help the economy grow.  There's no sure way to only eliminate people who are abusing the system.  Not only that, but the welfare system accounts for a very small portion of the debt.  It's a much better idea to focus on finding ways to create jobs than to cut people on welfare.

Make those applying for food stamps take a drug test and make anyone benefiting from said food stamps under that household take a drug test too.


So you're under the assumption that all people who are doing drugs that have food stamps and/or on some kind of welfare are abusing it?  I doubt it.  

When I get paid and get taxed 20% federal, then I will make any assumption I want. Especially since I work in retail and these so called poor people have fucking iPhones and are running food stamp cards.
