That was after Johnson's social ideal known as the "Great Society" was implimented. All you remember are times when welfare was humanized for the sakes of those who were on it. In the mid to late 50's onward, America enjoyed an economic boom. Most folks avoided welfare at all costs and, since jobs were plentiful they were largely successful in doing just that. It wasn't until later years when people began to realize they could play the establishment for suckers, and go on the perpetual dole. Before you set yourself up as an authority about welfare, you should at least do yourself the favor of reading up on it, cause you don't know what you're talking about. I wasn't talking about welfare of the 70's I was speaking of welfare from the late 40's through the mid 60's.

If you are 64, you don't have a clue about welfare of the 40-65's, without reading it in a book.
