Would you rather we call it welfare?

My mom told me she saw a report about practically whole towns (in America) getting disability, because the people are extremely poor, jobs are not to be found, and I guess maybe welfare is more difficult to get now so there are doctors willing to help the people get disability. It’s illegal of course. She said the report she saw was about a place in West Virginia, but I am sure it happens in other places.

I just think we should give welfare and call it welfare. I know poor people get EIC money through taxes, I am against that also if I understand it correctly. That is just welfare called by another name. I prefer to call it welfare.

I think we need an accurate count of how many people are on welfare and how much money is going out.

The dishonest disability is obviously a huge problem, because once on disability I think you are good to go so to speak. I don’t know if you ever really get reevaluated. Maybe someone here knows.
