What measures can help minimize welfare abuse?

5 years max lifetime benefit, 3 kids and you get sterilized, no more tax breaks, free housing, no school fees, no schoool lunches, while you are buying red bull and eating steak for dinner every night, i agree that people should be able to eat, but when you are eating better than the people providing help for your family there is a huge problem. limit the amount of junk food and to be quite honest if a person on foodstamps living in section 8 housing has more than 50 bucks left over from their paycheck its way too damn much. most american families are lucky if they have 50 bucks left over for savings. they also should have to max out their hours at work , if they are cutting their hours when they get a raise so they dont lose their foodstamps, they should lose them all. if you have a cellphone, gold out the ***, and 30 pairs of snow white designer sneakers youshouldnt be on welfare!
