Individuals need three years to find a job? That's an absurdly long amount of time.
In any event, help, whether for three days or for three years, should be provided by private charities funded by voluntary contributions, not governments.
Many of these people have no practical training, no work ethic, nothing. And they are saddled with children they never should have had, at too young an age. You cannot pay for child care with an entry level salary.
More people need to learn to do things in the right order. First education, then marriage, then children. Not children first, then maybe education and marriage later, if at all. The poor are usually people who did things in the wrong order.
I actually strongly approve of Clinton's Welfare Reform. And you are right about the order in which things are supposed to be done. However this economy is so bad that even if you do that, you're still in trouble as in my case. I would not support any further welfare reform measures except say some Section 8 restrictions.
