7/ Welfare programs are, in fact, welfare programs ... but the true and intended recipients are not the people receiving the benefits, but the social workers administering them. Welfare programs are job programs for democratic voters w useless degrees.https://twitter.com/PetjaYlitalo/status/1350088427660840961 …

Agreed here that benefits cliffs are the worst design, often encouraging workers to not do something beneficial (take a higher position) because they'd lose too much. All programs could be designed to phase out on a 1/2 or 1/3 basis (for each $3 income, lose $1 benefit).
