Why not make over the welfare system to incorporate financial help for those who need it, together with drug testing (if positive test, welfare is stopped), mandatory job skills training and subsidized child care. Make a time limit for how long one can be on welfare and enforce it. That would be a way to help people to help themselves.
Bottom line, if you want to get ahead bad enough, you will find a way to do it. Problem is, most people are happy enough to stay the way they are and bitch about the raw deal they've been handed rather than trying to change it.
