Nothing has really changed in the last 40 years since Reagan created the image of welfare fraud. The Republican voter tends to forget it's Christian values and prefers to believe the politicians that paint fantasy. Forty years of destroying jobs by both parties leads to fellow US citizens not able to find decent paying jobs. Most welfare recipients aren't living the high life on welfare. Most are employed, but can't make enough to survive. Common sense tells you no one can get wealthy off welfare.
