>> Almost none of them can be called welfare. Technically only one can, that is TANF. The bulk of Medicaid goes to people in nursing homes. Cut that out and a huge chunk of the middle class goes bankrupt. That isn't welfare either. It is easily possible to kill your argument on this, but unnecessary. By definition, anyone receiving government benefits is on some form of welfare. If they're middle class, so be it. This includes a vast number of Medicare and SS security recipients who are getting back more than they paid in.
