It&#x27;s not welfare that makes life suck for Aborigines. A lot of the problem is from being considered outsiders by the wider society they live in. Take away the welfare from the drunken troublemakers and they&#x27;re not going to magically turn into middle-class professionals. The whole situation is incredibly difficult and complex, and to lay it at the feet of &quot;welfare did this to them&quot; is doing a disservice.
