This petition is regarding government fundings on welfare. Research has been done and the government has spent over 3.7 trillion dollars on welfare funding. Approximately 80 different means- tested poverty and welfare programs.Trillions of money from taxpayers money is going to medicaid, food stamp programs, temporary assistance for the needy and much more (Harper). Poverty would decrease if more money was spent on education. This would cause the United States to prosper a better tomorrow.
U.S citizens should not be helping the needy if they don't want to, and by all means not be obligated to do so. If money was spent on education, if education became more affordable, than students would be able to get a better education for a higher paying job rather than just rely on welfare. And continuing this cycle. Many people are cheating the government, this needs to be stopped by creating better background checks. Overall, if government welfare spending is not ended. It will not only help the U.S be more economically stable but it will help taxpayers, and future students trying to get a higher education.

Reaching this point has been a difficult grind but seeing people take notice of the facts helps me keep going. The current system is failing us and this growth proves that many others share my frustration.

IF you were "sick enough" you would be deemed disabled, sorry , but its just the truth
I believe that if the government start investing more money in education , poverty would decrease. So that's why I'm gonna sign this petition.
I agree, that people are cheating the government and taking advatage of the money.
I agree. I don't think it's fair how they take taxes of checks just so the government can keep it.
I agree with this petition , because many people have been miss using their government welfare. Several people just give away the help they receive for more money , I agree with background checks being done. There has to be an end to this , only for the better of the U.S economy and for those who want to prosper in life.
You make a good point.

I agree with your petition. The government spends too much money on things that won't really benefit US in the long run...like you said, education would decrease poverty, which would make it easier for the government to handle their other ideas/problems/etc in the future.
