Death Taxes, which Obama supports and has stated he would increase.

I do. If they're on the dole and the tax payer is footing the bill. If you
can afford to have 10 kids, go for it, but don't expect the public to
support them while you're a welfare. It's no different that if you were
divorced, whoever doesn't have custody pays for their support, not the
public.

Most often by a monetary handout.

That's what Ross was talking about.

As it should be everywhere.

The recipient, since they're receiving benefits from the taxes they've
paid into the unemployment fund. However, they must qualify under state
laws to receive it. Some situations require you to actively seek
employment and show proof of the contacts you've made; with perhaps a
signature of the person you contacted.

 st>  Most use it to pay for cost of living expenses.

That's what it's for.

 st> I'm sure a few splurge it on other items, but it's temporary;

As they are elsewhere.

 st> TANF: Requires even more proof of hardship; i.e. copies of bills,
 st> proof of income, ect.  It's provided on a case-by-case basis with a
 st> case worker.

Not only do they have to show proof, they also have to devulge assets,
which can disqualify them if they're what isn't allowed.

I don't think he said 'do away' with them, he meant that these programs be
harder to get under certain conditions.

We already are and those laws are still on the books.
