Does this argument make sense? (cause a friend of mine seems not to think

The fact that kids who's parents that "live" on welfare also end up "living"
on welfare verses the kids who's parents do not live on welfare prove that
welfare does not work in getting people off welfare.

The US system of giving parents inadequate welfare, so their kids
don't live well enough to be able to do well at school is indeed a
foolish system.

European welfare is pitched that little bit higher and seems to avoid
this particular pitfall.


Yeah, right. I've heard kids openly say "Why should I apply for a job? Then I have to pay taxes and I get more money from welfare anyway."

That was in the country where you now live, and the very reason why I left that country.
