What's the alternative?
Every person on welfare will be spending all the money given to them in the local community. And spending it on food, rent, heating, etc. If you keep that money and give it to people over $100,000 you can bet a lot will be spending the money on things outside the local community. Like holidays or foreign cars.
People on welfare will often spend money in places owned or managed by people earning $100,000. It's called the trickle up effect.
Yes people on welfare have to do something for it. Like sweep the streets, help the aged and infirm or anything that contribute to society as a whole. But you can't not support them because they don't have a job that does not exist.
