I agree. The &quot;welfare queen&quot; or &quot;SNAP for steaks&quot; stereotypes are assisted by their immediate visual presence, enough to make even one encounter turn people off of the welfare scheme, especially if they see it as freeloaders on their paycheck. If the theme is less &quot;makers and takers&quot; and more &quot;we&#x27;re all in it together,&quot; we may find ourselves looking at our fellow citizens in a more egalitarian light, knowing that the minimum is not one to be feared, but avoided, if possible, and desired.
