    I wouldn't have thought living on welfare in the US would be an attractive proposition.

    Surely the issue is whether or not they'd get jobs if they did apply for them?

      Sadly, no. Believe me in the town where I live there are thousands of people who have been on welfare for three generations. Mom gets pregnant at 14, has 7 babies all the females go on welfare etc.
      A lot of boys do not get jobs they sell drugs and mooch off their babies mamas.
      It sounds like a bad way of living but some people are satisfied with a pack of smokes and some Mountain dew and fast food.
      I happen to live in a place with an extremely high amount of welfare recipients and yes a lot ofunemployed people really do want jobs...but for some people welfare is a lifestyle.

        Well, I can't argue with your personal knowledge on this issue, so I won't even try.

        I don't know what the alternative is though.
