I watch the people walking by. They don’t realize the value of what they have. They have shelter, lights, food, water. Moreover, they have people, people who care. I am only a nuisance to society. I am less than that; I am nothing. It would make no difference to the world if I just disappeared. Maybe I will. That’s one less person’s welfare to worry about.
Welfare is a great program that helps plenty of people. Although, too many people take advantage of it, not because they consciously choose too, but because if you give somebody something for free, they will not treat it with respect.
Welfare sucks. I hate being on welfare. It embarrasses me so badly. It’s not even funny. When the postman shows up on the porch carrying that welfare check each month I hide my face cause he’s the daddy of Janice from school. Janice is popular and she’s not on welfare. It is so embarrassing.
She just stood there in the doorway. Her bills dropped to the floor and the look on her face was not reassuring. It was in that doorway where she broke down, sobbing in a heap on the hardwood floors of our tiny apartment.
I am just trying to look out for you. I remember those words so clearly, I knew how wrong they were. I don’t know what it’s intentions were but they most certainly had nothing to do with my well being. That thing, whatever it was, is evil.
Living payment to payment.
Never going out, never buying luxuries, never living as life was meant to be lived.
Barely enough to pay for rent, bills, food…
Certainly not enough to cover the doctors bills.
And so her health slips again.
Can’t hold down a job due to health.
Can’t make money without a job.
Can’t improve health without the doctors.
Can’t pay the doctors.
The circle of our welfare system for those who are truly in need.
Welfare. Child welfare. Animal welfare. Welfare.
Always unfailingly helping the vulnerable. Those in need.
But what about those who you can’t tell they’re in need?
The strong, the masked, those who are still standing?
What shall help them?
What will happen if they fall?
Maybe we are too scared to answer that question and thus pretend it doesn’t need to be addressed and so we pretend it doesn’t exist.
And so the strong weaken…
The mail was late today. I scurried from the front door to the mailbox back to the front door through the haze of spring rain. I saw before I got inside: the check had come, we could eat.
A necessary safety net in any society worth its salt. While It’s certainly abused by some small percentage, over all it is invaluable to the poorest among us.

The welfare of the people was the highest priority. The welfare of the needy was their main target. This was a society where everyone got the help they needed. Where everyone deserved the help they got.
Where everyone was equal, though some were more equal than others.
My welfare. Your welfare. Our welfare. Let’s not sink the boat. Don’t tip the kayak. paddle smooth and steady even if the waves are tall and powerful. Let’s just head for the calm waters.
If I took the time to care for the welfare of everything, and everyone I cared about, I would not have time to live. For my time would be taken up with all I care about.
She was concerned for her child’s welfare. Her ex-husband was battling her for custody of their daughter. The ex was abusive throughout the marriage and she feels he only wants “possession” of their daughter out of spite.
Social Security is not social welfare. It is social insurance to protect against poverty. Any changes such as means testing would defeat this vital goal of Social Security, which is why we must make sure such changes are not implemented.
– From Debate Central
Welfare is the provision of a minimal level of well-being and social support for all citizens, sometimes referred to as public aid. In most developed countries, welfare is largely provided by the government, in addition to charities, informal social groups, religious groups, and inter-governmental organizations.
Welfare can take a variety of forms, such as monetary payments, subsidies and vouchers, or housing assistance. Welfare systems differ from country to country, but Welfare is commonly provided to individuals who are unemployed, those with illness or disability, the elderly, those with dependent children, and veterans. A person’s eligibility for Welfare may also be constrained by means testing or other conditions.

What was the next step? Bankruptcy? Welfare? John knew he had to do something drastic about his soon to be ex-wife. The thought that came to his mind chilled him to the bone. But then, he smiled.
The welfare of the children should be foremost, but rarely does anyone ask the children what they think would be best. Parents in a divorce will lie, cheat, and manipulate to gain advantage over their ex- partner, but the children are probably the only ones who are truly looking out for their own interests.
Welfare, taken advantage, taken control, taken everything.
Given to those who don’t care; those with a black soul.
Deception, devour, demeaning, defeat…
She asked probing questions
as if she was ever so concerned about you,
poor creature,
and your welfare
when in fact she was mining for details
to fuel her personal gossip mill
and to arm her for future attacks.
Ahh, mothers
has a price tag
that has a bit too many zeroes.
millionaires in the Senate
representing the people.
the people that ask for coins
as i cross the street between
Congress and Pennington.
I think that welfare is a word I would like to know? Wouldn’t you? Welfare sounds weird. I do not yet know the meaning of this strange word but I and guessing it is a business term because of the word ‘fare’ maybe fair business because of ‘wel’ like ‘well’? I don’t know yet but I wish to.
I’m not even sure I know what that means. Who does? What person grows up having a good concept of such a thing? Does it matter? Should it? Who can solve this “problem?” Ha. That’s what it’s down to…ask a question and “try” to give an answer.
we’ll give you this
(though not much)
so you can keep on doing what you do
(which isn’t much either)
we feel sorry for your problems
(but life’s tough titty)
so take this.
(fare wel)
“I know you don’t believe me now but everything I have done has been for your welfare,” he said, his voice low and sincere.
“I know you think that,” she began slowly, choosing her words with care. “But you don’t know what’s best for me. I do. You need to learn to respect that,”
“I can’t help the fact that I want to protect you,”
“I don’t need your protection!” I declared, fed up with his overprotective nature. “I can take care of myself,”
This is for my own welfare.
I write these words to protect myself from a world that wishes to totally
disarm me
and expect me to like it
I’m thinking always
why
why does it have to be this way
why do I have put with other
people’s visions.
for who do the bells toll? who’s life is determined to be the most worth living. Money is success is the biggest lie anyone has ever told. You are successful when you are happy, no matter what you are doing.
For the welfare of my ass, I’m going to get off it and go to the gym. I need a good stretch anyway not that the weather looks better. Plus a stretch of activity is good for my tempering my temper, or uplifting my mood as it were. Also: Music.
I want to be free. I want to live my life doing what I love to do. I don’t mean a career, a certain profession… I mean I just want to life my life in love with it. I want to know where I’m going, or know just enough so that I’m not afraid to go into it blindly. I want to love love love and be free.
Some people have it, some people don’t. It isn’t fair to the masses. People will die who need it and some will live who have it but don’t. It is a shame. The world needs honesty and love but there’s none.
Everything I wish for, everything I want. I want to be happy. I want to be free. I want to love what I’m doing, and I want to do what I love. That’s all I’ve ever wanted: To find a purpose, to know my place, to live my life free of stressors and unhappiness. I want to be free. I want to be free. I want to love love love and be free.
I thought about the welfare of my children and decided not to go down a path of regret.
I watch the people walking by. They don’t realize the value of what they have. They have shelter, lights, food, water. Moreover, they have people, people who care. I am only a nuisance to society. I am less than that; I am nothing. It would make no difference to the world if I just disappeared. Maybe I will. That’s one less person’s welfare to worry about.
Well its not fair that its like this but we make decisions based on it
life preserved by life.
Should we or shouldnt we
Some people need our help, and I will.

A commitment.
The front desk man hands me my prescription.
Diazepam, ten milligrams it says.
I had to shell out half my paycheck on this.
Not anymore.
People hand down stuff to you when you’ve got nothing to loose.
If I took the time to care for the welfare of everything, and everyone I cared about, I would not have time to live. For my time would be taken up with all I care about.
My welfare is rather important to me, it’s my health, my physical being.
Welfare is not that important in the government, it is merely yet another program for those who have no money or the incentive to make it.

– From Debate Central
“You’re not considering the welfare of the people.”
“Welfare? Bah! Welfare is for lazy people.”
“Not the welfare program, you dolt. The people’s welfare. Their conditions.”
The Chancellor was not amused by any of his advisor’s words. He reclined back on his green cushioned chair and lit a cigar.
“What else would you have me do?” he demanded. “I can’t save or cure everyone’s suffering.”
“No,” said his advisor, “but you can definitely try a little harder.”

Ahh, mothers
this isnt good for me, nor is it good for you. this is a tad bit ridiculous how we constantly play this game of chase, in what world is it fair?
Is the word always welfare? What happens with what we write here…
