The government should cut significantly spending on welfare

The government shouldn't eliminate welfare, they should reform it. They should keep child support for parents who have many children. The government should make sure that people get an education, get a good paying job and get off welfare. If that happens then welfare spending will significantly decrease, that's how the government should cut spending on welfare. Like I said, right now the government is spending over $400 billion on welfare. Since welfare is costing people who work $59 billion all together, it's hurting the economy. The more money the government takes away from people the less money people are going to spend. So therefore the large spending on welfare is hurting the economy. You just stated that the government has no input on making it easier for people to get a job. Well you're wrong because businesses pay high corporate taxes. It costs businesses a lot of money to follow all the regulations on them. Those taxes and regulations were put in place by the government, so therefore it is the government's fault that businesses are not improving. China has a lot less regulations on businesses than the U.S. and their economy is excellent. There should be some regulations on businesses to make sure people are safe but right now there are too many regulations on businesses. The U.S. also has a high corporate tax rate. The corporate tax rate in the U.S. is 35%. It has one of the highest corporate tax rate in the world. All the taxes and regulations that are currently in place cost businesses a lot of money. Therefore they should reduce the taxes and regulations on them. If a business makes more money than they will hire more employees to make their business bigger. Small businesses will definitely hire more employees to make their business big. You're right, businesses do need to manage their funds their making in order to expand but if small businesses pay less taxes and have less regulations on them than they will have more money. In order for those small businesses to expand, the owners of the small businesses cannot take most of the profit. If small business owners want their business to expand than they shouldn't take most of the profit. Business owners need to use some of the money their business makes to buy things for the business. Small business owners don't make a seven digit salary. In regards to big businesses, they should also get their taxes and regulations cut so that they will sell their products for a cheaper price and at least some big businesses will hire more employees. Cutting taxes and regulations on businesses will also make it more affordable for companies to manufacture products in the United States. The government does have the ability to improve businesses because right now the government is burdening them with high taxes and excessive regulations. They need to cut taxes and regulations on them and let them keep most of their money. The government should also cut taxes on people including the wealthy so they will spend more money. The more money people spend the better it is for the economy. In regards to rich people, they lose a good amount of money from taxes, but I never said that they lose enough money to be in poverty. The rich people that inherit their wealth should keep most of their money so they could spend a lot money. The more the government taxes people the less money people will spend. There should be some taxes so that the government will have some money but if there's high taxes than businesses won't do well. High taxes and a lot of regulations on businesses causes people to lose their job and be on welfare. In regards to Unemployment Benefits, the government should keep it but people should not be on it for a long time. Obama made it last longer for people. He made it last for over two years for people who are unemployed. If unemployment benefits last for a long time for people than people won't get a job quickly. The government should limit unemployment benefits once businesses start to hire more employees. The reason that unemployment is high is because businesses can't afford to have as many employees as they use to have. Helping businesses is the key to fixing the economy. Helping businesses will also help people because businesses hire people to work for them. People having jobs is better for them than being on welfare. Welfare doesn't decrease poverty because the benefits are small. The government can't afford to increase welfare benefits. So therefore the government should help people get a job instead of giving them free money for a long time. Sources: http://www.usgovernmentspending.com...
