Welfare Isn’t Dead - Thomas Main
I found this article very interesting, and the author’s claim that welfare is alive but in need of some overhaul and editing makes a lot of sense to me.

But it’s definitely baffling to me that, as the article states, so few of those who are eligible for welfare get it.
Main concludes the article by touching on the reason he thinks
