I found this from another article and thought I’d paste it here. I was shocked when I read this especially since in this economy there are more and more people on it.

“The other secret of New York’s supposed welfare reform is that there are no time limits. In the rest of the country, after five years on the dole, you’re off. Again, not in New York. The state ignores the federal time limit and lets recipients stay on its rolls indefinitely - at the state’s exclusive expense.”
