Clinton could end welfare dependency via work incentives
The piece argues that Bill Clinton campaigns as a different kind of Democrat and urges a break with past welfare policy. It calls for a two year job training period followed by work requirements, a time-limited federal dole, and a plan to reward work while ending long term aid for able bodied recipients. It notes historical trends from 1950 to 1990 and urges rapid action after his election with a Democratic Congress.
