Do yourself a favor and stop thinking in such binary terms. Welfare has good aspects and bad. It's good that people can eat, it helps prevent crime, and can be a safety net for somebody that had their shit fucked out outside of their control (company they worked for failed, job market doing terrible, etc).

It's bad because you're encouraging people to be lazy and not contribute to society.

yeah this, but mostly the last one. short term more working people, but only a very small percent increase.
long term starvation from the lack of jobs and lack of qualified workers. you'd see a population decrease that is enough to scare the economy, it will leave us with a slim, lean, 100% working population. but there will probably be war from other nations' economies going as a result of ours, or civil unrest where people take to the streets.

Look at Socialism (Communism). It was ran under the thought that "Government provided for everyone whatever they needed". Plus the dictator style form of Government and lack of freedoms. Well the only pure communist country left is North Korea. Look how fucked up it is. If you were born after 1990 then you don't really know what it was like. Back when Russia was the Soviet Union. Here in the U.S we got our own style of Welfare. For some cases it's a good thing (Dude gets hurt legit and can't work or gets fired from his job cause his company goes tits up). For the ones who free ride it drags it down for everyone else.

I'm a physician and when I was taking my psychiatry rotations ans a student and intern (I'm a family practice doc) we were required to ask our patients a 'mini-mental status exam' as well as other questions. I incorporated these questions into regular exams as well but one question I always ask is 'If I said 'people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones' ...what does that mean?' You would be amazed at the amount of otherwise 'regular' people simply say 'cuz that break the winnowz...'

Welfare is a tool. Just like a hammer, it can be used to build great things, or you can break windows with it. If you have a closed society in which everyone is early on taught the value of working hard (alternative: government indoctrination), welfare can be applied as a social safety net. In this society where everyone wants to contribute, some people will fail and they will lose everything. With nothing else to do, these people would be the only source of criminals in your society (if pushed to the limit. Even a saint would choose to steal over starving to death) so you have to think about how to prevent this. This is where you would put the welfare, giving people that fall in this category some acceptable living standards until they can recover.

If you have an open society where you literally have no control over how the people that are in it were raised and what values they hold, welfare is simply a nefarious incentive for bad people. That is how you get that black guy who got a bunch of scholarships so that he could live like a king, or how you get those black girls that have more and more babies to collect more benefits, etc.

People being prone to criminality is retarded. Use an economic interpretation of psychology. People will simply pursue their economic interests. Give someone a 6 figure salary and they will have no reason to commit petty crimes. Maybe then they could turn to corporate crime, but even the most crooked person would not risk that if he had a less risky path towards higher earnings. After all, crime is all good but the risk is always that if you get caught, you lose everything.

That is true but when we are talking about people with significant net worths it has been consistently shown that even if they are not rational actors, they are very good approximations of a rational actor. This is true simply because it is ridiculously easy to lose a million dollars (see lotto winners who have managed to lose fortunes in the tens of millions in just a few years), and relatively hard to reverse that move.

Unlike everyone else in this thread I have actual experience with people on welfare. They get $1200 or so in social security "disability" but the kicker is that they are unable to do any type of work even one hours worth otherwise they lose ALL of their welfare. So what do they do? They do petty crimes to make that extra bit of money above the limited welfare check. This usually includes shoplifting, credit card fraud, and selling drugs. All stuff that is outside of the government's eyes, and tax free of course. Also, they will do a lot of white collar "crime" that the only thing anyone can do about is try to sue them (such as insurance fraud). Guess what is judgement proof against lawsuits? Yes welfare checks. The welfare system creates a shitload of people like this and makes sure they stay that way.

Welfare is great. Under no other system can you legally steal from asians and whites for the sole purpose of paying brown people to not work. After funding consumption of junk food, these 300 lb hambeasts squirt out 4 more lovely brown rocket scientists who will further dain the system of $150,000 each just in public schooling alone. Luckily, they will be taught that the white man caused all of their problems, and they are helpless to fix it unless a upperclass jew with political and financial connections does it for them.

It can be bad or good. Just depends on how you go about it.

It's actually very simple - you can either have a welfare state or open borders. Choosing both will make your government collapse.

The political left likes to point out the success of welfare in Nordic countries and consider them worthy of emulating. That may be a good idea, but they selectively ignore the fact that their success is largely due to the fact that they've been ethnically, culturally and racially homogenous for the larger parts of their history. Now due to the recent open borders policies, it's all slowly getting overwhelmed and will ultimately crumble.

Now, if all forms government-sponsored welfare was suddenly cutoff, a few interesting things will happen:

1. You will see huge reductions in taxes

2. Community-based, forms of welfare will arise. Especially in high-trust, low (violent) crime communities. If you suddenly find yourself in a sticky situation through no fault of your own, you get old, get sick, etc, you may get tons of help from family, neighbors, and so on. More so than you would if you had the government as a safety net. Inversely, if you're known to be a shitbag, you won't get shit. This form of welfare is self-regulating and self-policing.

3. Anyone who fixes the roads will probably stamp their company's logo on the asphalt.
