Question by hughmanwho: How does the welfare system work?
Hello, I’m arguing politics with a friend and trying to figure out a little bit of information on the current welfare system in the US.
What are the requirements to qualify for welfare? Is it just not making enough money? Do you have to have a disability?
How much money per year does the welfare system give to the people receiving it?

Sources would be great if you have them.

Thank you!

Well I’m not an expert, but it seems that you just don’t have to have a job. And the government will just give you money. It seems ridiculous to me. I think the system needs to be totally overhauled.
