This is probably true. Still, them being stuck in a minimum wage job doesn't help society either. Young people do stupid ****.

Yes, the system is broken... Let's use the analogy of domestication of wild pigs. What you do is put some food out for the pigs... Do this for a week, then put up a post near the food, continue this until the fence is all but built, then you put out the food and the pigs can't help themselves and you just close the gate.

I'll tell you something; I have yet to meet a single person that is a combination of hard working, dedicated, intelligent, and or driven people that makes minimum wage or remains unemployed for very long.

what this means is that the failures are not just with the welfare system, it really is total systemic failures on every front, and the abuse of the social safety net is just among the symptoms of the greater problems we are facing as a society.
This is true.
