Many taxpayers resent paying taxes to support welfare recipients who are all too frequently stigmatized and stereotyped as being lazy, cheats, and welfare-dependent. However, few of these very same taxpayers and others realize how many people receive government benefits in one way or another. Should it be mandated that welfare recipients:

· Take whatever jobs are available, including dead-end jobs?
· Accept jobs, even if the wages would be less than their welfare benefits?
· Participate in job-training programs?
· Perform community work, if jobs are not available, in exchange for some of their benefits?
· Have their extra benefits reduced for additional children?
· Pay the actual cost of their education in community and state colleges (they are all subsidized by state and local tax monies)?
