That didn't last too long though. i think the majority of people on welfare are honest people...a lot of them just have too much pride and end up dismissing jobs that they feel are beneath them.

A friend of mine's mother worked at a bank and used to cash welfare checks for people. Some of them would drive up in a Mercedes.
People I know who have too much pride to take a given job have way too much pride to take welfare. That's not to say there aren't plenty of honest people on welfare, but I question whether the majority is honest or dishonest.
