According to this in 1954 25% of Singapore's population lived in slums. The government decided to do something about it so they stepped in and built 44,000 homes and let the people live in them. That is some serious welfare. . . but it worked.
Do you think it would work in US? I mean if all homeless would be given free housing?
hehe (no need to answer)

And Singapore is just an example, maybe extreme one, system is too good there, difficult to achieve that. But all I am saying is that welfare encouragement is never good for any country. So when I see successful people here claiming they will vote democrats I think - why? I am seriously looking forward to few replies from those people.
