I know that workfare ain't going to fix everything, and I didn't realize that it was largely involuntary. Isn't making someone work against his or her will essentially slavery?

The problem is, right now, the welfare system ain't working to great and honestly, I don't like the idea of taking money from those who work and giving it to those who don't, given that they are able-bodied.

I don't understand why private companies can't work with the government to provide jobs for those who want or need jobs. Such as a tax-break incentive for hiring individuals on welfare or something. The person would be a regular employee and receive employee benefits...you know, like a regular job and they would cease to receive money from the government when they start receiving their pay check.

Now, I'm just pulling this out of my ass right now and I know the solution won't be that easy.

Another thing that I think would make a world of difference would be a mass transit that doesn't suck ass in areas where there are high populations of unemployed individuals...because what good is having a job if you can't get to it?
