1.
2. WHY IT WAS CREATED
To help us citizens who had very low
income. It began in the 1930s during the
great depression. The us government
was over whelmed , so they responded
with the us welfare system.
3. Most Americans with the welfare system,
because people were abusing the program by
not applying for jobs , having more kids, and
staying unmarried for better benefits. since
people started to abuse the program, president
Clinton signed a law that gave control of the
welfare system to the government to make
types of welfare.
4. WHEN IT BEGAN
In the 1990s the government made several
changes in the welfare system.
One of the most well know change was to aiding
family's and independent children, instead of
long-term support they provide short term
support to help people become able to support
themselves.
5. IS WELFARE A BAD SYSTEM?
During the 1970s some people started to
dislike the articles of confederation. A
main concern was taxes. Since congress
could not tax the people they had to tax
the states, on occasion and on occasion
the states would not pay the money, and
congress had no way to enforce this.
6. BUSINESSES
In addition not being able to tax
people, congress could not control
business or money. That the states made
with other country's. This prevented
congress from resolving trade problems
with England.
7. CHECKS AND BALANCES
The people who created the constitution in 1787
wanted each branches power to be separate
but balanced. People believed giving absolute
power to one branch was dangerous to the
government. The main reason for checks and
balances was so each branch could check to
see if another branch was abusing its power.
