Message Subject Obama Executive order ends Welfare Reform as we know it!

Wait, so he is requiring people to prepare for work and making welfare more temporary? Isn't that a good thing?

OP says, "The welfare reform law was very successful. In the four decades prior to welfare reform, the welfare caseload never experienced a significant decline".

Isn't that a BAD thing?! Don't you want the welfare caseload to be smaller?!

The only problem I see is that the unemployment rate is so high and that would present a complication, then people can't qualify for welfare, and you have angry people, etc. Am I missing something here?!?!?

The welfare reform happened under Clinton and was a good thing. It got people off of welfare and back to work. Obama, with the stroke of a pen got rid of it.

Yes, he just wiped out a decade of welfare reform and it's back to Square #1.

More and likely massive entitlements when we can't pay the ones we already have. More rewards for the non-productive.
