Kachi-
Nobody is going to provide you that data on this board.
There is too much of it and this board is mostly concerned with emotionalism and not facts or logic.
However, I too went to college and read quite a bit about the welfare state. While liberal in most regards, I do think that welfare is a dead end. Literally in some cases. That probably puts my college at odds with yours.
Welfare as it is usually treated in this country is giving a man a fish, rather than teaching him TO FISH. You know the rest of the cliche. Pasture of the Commons and all that jazz.
