These days, the topic of social welfare payments is a subject of heated debate. For one part of society it is obvious that it can be used by people who aren’t in need, while others are convinced that the government should support all citizens. I agree that citizens should be supported by benefits because it can effect positively scosiety in many aspects from helping people who can’t work to reduse level of crime, but nethreveless there are some risks.
To begin with, for some part of society it is essential to get social payments. For example, for incapable people, being supported by payments is the only way to afford a normal live. Another reason why payments are important is that they can prevent a big number of crimes. For example, it is no wonder that unymployment can increase poverty and as a result to indalge people to commit crimes. Single parents should supported by the government as well because of impossibility to leave their children alone. Generally, due to the fact of underpopulation in developed coutries, supporting people with children with benefits it is a good measure to increase the birth level.
An alternative point of view is that for some people social welfare payments include a lot of drawbaks. For example, it can consern working people that their taxes can be spent on people who just don’t want to work. Moreover it can seem that social payments can increase dependency and indalge people not to make effort to find a job. Another problem is that people can use benefits for selfish purposes. For example, in Russia people divorced fictitiously to get payments like single parent.
In conclusion, however social welfare payments has many disadvantages, they are vital for many social groups. In addition, it can help to make society better by decreasing the level of crimes and increasing the level of live of valnerouble people.
