THE SOUTH WITH RISE AGAIN!
YEEYEE
__**DEBATE NIGHT**__
**Topic**: *Government Assistance Programs*
**Date**: *Fri, October 19th*
**Time**: *8PM EST*
**Questions**
```
-The U.S. has several federal and state government assistance programs, including subsidized housing, SSI, food stamps/EBT, Medicare/Medicaid, and more. Should any of these be reformed, stay the same, or be done away with entirely? Should new programs be added?
-With Social Security expected to become insolvent in the year 2034, what changes should be made to extend the life of the program? Or should it be replaced with a new program?
-Between Welfare, Medicare/Medicaid, and government pensions (including Social Security) amounting to 62% of Federal Budget spending, what should be done to lower this percentage?
-What should be done to help prevent exploitation/fraud in state and federal government assistance programs?
-What requirements should there be to receive these government benefits? Should the current ones remain or should they be changed?

should we legalize marijuana?

Yes
I know plenty of people who've stayed on it for their whole lives.
our current system advocated passive lifestyles/staying poor instead of bettering yourself
@Mord Drug users trade groceries for drugs as well.
some systems (idk if it's in US) you earn any money over welfare monthly allowance, you lose the benefit
lets say its $1000
you make 1860
you only keep 860
I see welfare as increasing suffering beyond the suffering caused by the hunger, strife, etc. of the poor.
