One issue is that it can be difficult to be both lazy and a fully engaged welfare recipient. Given the complexity of eligibility proof and maintaining eligibility for various services (social security, medicaid&#x2F;medicare, food stamp policies, child welfare services, child support...) participation in the Welfare World could come to occupy all of the time and working memory of its users apart from time spent avoiding the other perils of the lower class world (drugs, evictions, crime). In a science fictionesque version, a majority of people are caught slogging through socialist welfare calculus while a select few ayn randian figures rise above and create empires of capitalism to cushion themourselves from the black hole dystopian welfare system sucking down higher and higher socioeconomic ranks. Luckily, I don&#x27;t think things are that bad.
