As a libertarian, I don't believe anyone should be required to work, however I do think working hard for money and the satisfaction of earning money is important to our daily life, values, role in market economy, etc. If people want to sign up for welfare, which there's no problem with for me, then I think they should be at least looking for a job. I understand that people who are poor need assistance, but people shouldn't have assistance to be lazy, scam the system, or be on it for a lifetime (the "addiction" argument).

Voted for option 6.
