if i am not mistaken we never had any social programs prior to 1935 .. most people got off there ass and worked.. even retirement wasnt used.. people worked till they died.. if you ever rely on the government, you will alway be poor.. you will never aspire to be better than you are because you expect the goernment to do it for you.. im not saying your on welfare but i know personally what it does to people.. my sister was on it and had kids just to stay on it.. so we dont need governmet to help us with anything but national defense
