You believe in promoting policies that maximize the overall well-being and happiness of individuals in society.
Welfarism is a political ideology that emphasizes the welfare or well-being of the community, particularly its most vulnerable members. It is rooted in the belief that the state has a responsibility to provide a certain level of material security for its citizens, especially those who are unable to provide for themselves. This ideology is often associated with social democratic and socialist political movements, but it can also be found in other political traditions.
The origins of welfarism can be traced back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, during a period of rapid industr…

How might an increase in mental health support as part of welfare affect school environments and student well-being?
@9JL3WNY4mos4MO
They would make school life much more enjoyable for students.
@9JLWV84 4mos4MO
Because I can't walk through the hallways without misgendering somebody and then getting in trouble for it. So I get in trouble for knowing basic biology and having my own opinion. And I believe I have the right to not have to participate in their illusions/fantasys.
@9JL3DC9Independent4mos4MO
It would increase it because there would be more support for people who need it.
@9JL42NK4mos4MO
An increase in mental health suport as part of welfare woul positively affect school environments and student wellbeing.

How do you think your day-to-day stress levels would change if there was a safety net for your essential needs?
@9JL4CL64mos4MO
It would bring some relief to think that there is a safety net.
@9JLRHC3Libertarian4mos4MO
If my house burns down and I don't have insurence because I cant afford it because im living off of minimum wage I will be homeless and starve, if we have a safety net for basic needs ill know that i wont starve.
@9JL44394mos4MO
I would be worried that the government would have to much control over me.
@9JL48J64mos4MO
I wouldn't know what reaction I would have depending on the situation.
@9JL4HBTPeace and Freedom4mos4MO
If people didn't have to worry about things like food and what meal they're going to eat next, they would be a lot less stress
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
Can you share a time when you felt a government program improved your life or the life of someone close to you?
@9KV63X4Republican3mos3MO
@9KV68HY3mos3MO
Food stamps have really helped my family afford to get more groceries.
@9KV5Z373mos3MO
Never. It steals from hard working people and gives it to the inferior, undeserving people. Allows the weak to prosper. Is there any wonder that our hegemony is crumbling?
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
How do you think your future aspirations would be impacted by living in a society with strong welfare support?
@9J5T2H65mos5MO
My future probably will not be impacted that much by a strong welfare support system. We need to have a strong welfare system in order to help people in need and get them back on their feet
@9J5V9T45mos5MO
Welfare could really help people in need and people who don ´ t have a lot of money. It would very helpful for me.
@9J5VYMSLibertarian5mos5MO
With a strong well fare this country could supply it people of low income with life saving supplies.
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
What's the strongest argument for or against welfare that you've heard, and how did it affect your views?
@9KHVZKRIndependent 3mos3MO
I think everyone should have the chance to do better. Although we shouldn't make an extra effort to help those who are less fortunate because they voluntarily choose to not work. I think it is fair to say that we work for what we earn.
@9KHS42W3mos3MO
Everyone should be given the opportunity to improve, but we should not go out of our way to improve those less fortunate who chose to become less fortunate.
@9KHRQ9CRepublican3mos3MO
Everyone should be given the opportunity to improve, but we should not go out of our way to improve those less fortunate who chose to become less fortunate.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
Can a balance between rewarding hard work and providing welfare be achieved, and what would that look like to you?
@9JL4GP34mos4MO
Yes it can. The State must guarantee a basic minimum standard of dignity for all people
@9JL4G6M4mos4MO
If they have a job or trying to get one but not make enough money they deserve welfare
@9JL4CWSIndependent4mos4MO
Yes, it is achievable. To oversimplify it, if a citizen is working and meets multiple criteria, we should then provide livable welfare.
@ISIDEWITH7mos7MO
Do you think it's fair to redistribute wealth from the rich to support the poor, and why?
@9H8V8DJ6mos6MO
yes the rich make their money on the backs of the poor, and then refuse to pay a fair wage
@9H8VXHMPeace and Freedom6mos6MO
I don't think it is fair to redistribute wealth from the rich but I think we can tax them more and use the taxes taken to create poverty relief programs.
@9H8XMZB6mos6MO
Is because the only reason why their's such high taxes and inflammation nowadays is that other companies are starting to get greedy with the money they obtain by buying food from the market or just buying a drink from the gas station, All of the drinks, foods, or diary products something that has to be relating for food is going to be getting taxed. Not forgetting to mention that some stores tax .20 - .10$ depending on the amount of items that you have in your cart/ bag; making the poor people even poorer while the rich will get richer than ever, making it a lot more difficult to ever succeed in life with a minimum wage job.
@9H8TYB96mos6MO
The origins of welfarism can be traced back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, during a period of rapid industrialization and urbanization in Western Europe and North America. The harsh conditions faced by many workers and their families during this time led to calls for government intervention to improve living standards and protect the rights of workers. This led to the establishment of various social welfare programs, such as public health initiatives, unemployment insurance, and old-age pensions.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
If you had to choose, would you prioritize funding for healthcare or education, and why?
@9HM58P56mos6MO
healthcare and education are connected, and improvements in one area can positively impact the other. For instance, a healthy and educated population tends to be more productive and better equipped to contribute to the overall well-being of society.
@9HM4XKXRepublican6mos6MO
Federal pay for Helathcare - State pay for education
Education because it will be easier to prevent health issues if one is educated on it.
@9HM4XBT6mos6MO
Healthcare because it should be one of the upmost priority to allow access to your health
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
How do you imagine societal attitudes might change if everyone received equal access to basic welfare services?
@9HW2KCVIndependent5mos5MO
everyone deserves these services. societal attitudes will definitely be better, it should be a requirement that everyone receives these services.
@9HXGHSP5mos5MO
Equal access to welfare services lowers the gap between the upper and lower class. By allowing the poor to stay poor, we are increasing potential animosity between the two groups due to jealousy.
the complex of policies, attitudes, and beliefs associated with the welfare state
@9HW2H4X5mos5MO
There will be less in poverty and a decreased homeless population. With an increase in the wellbeing of the population, it will increase, which will increase the economy.
@9HW2KN75mos5MO
People leaning towards the right will be against said welfare services, while the left will be in full support.
After some time I believe everyone will realize that it is for the betterment of our country.
