With so many states having financial problems and considering some states pay almost 40% of their budget toward welfare benefits do you think it's a good idea to require that in order to receive welfare benefits the recipient would be required to perform community/charitable service to "earn" it.
I understand some people are 100% disabled and are totally unable to so they should be exempt, but there are way too many people that are physically able to do work but for whatever reason dont want to work or are unable to find a job.
I think that by requiring some kind of service such as picking up trash along the highway, or working as a volunteer at a homeless shelter or humane society or something along those lines, people may be more motivated to look for a job to get off welfare and help the government save some money so we dont have to keep having our taxes raised
