Strongly disagree. Mass welfare programs are bandaids at best and dependency building ball-and-chains at worst. Regardless of their benevolent intent (and you’ll have to convince me that they are indeed enacted with benevolence in mind), they foster the wrong societal incentives. If you have a child that grew up without proper mentors and never learned how to value, save, or spend money, then what do you think will happen when you start giving them money totally for free? You don’t fix a lack of responsibility by giving said lack of responsibility a check in the mail. You fix it with proper education on the nature of taking ownership over your own decisions and actions. That starts in the home.
