You make a lot of assumptions on why people are on assistance. Do you realize we're in a recession? Police, Firemen, Teachers and executives have lost their jobs and yes, there ARE a lot of one-parent, absentee fathers, drugged out mothers, teen moms, etc. How do you legislate behavior? Sometimes a foreclosure is the reason, too! What you propose is illegal and unconstitutional. The Constitution pertains to the poor, too! No need to change laws to suit you.
