I got my entire college tuition, housing in a luxury dormitory apartment, food in a dining hall with professional chefs, and school supplies including a new $1k computer paid for by the government, save $5k/yr (which is less than many euros pay when factoring in living costs).

Now having graduated, I work part-time and get my groceries, healthcare, and 70% of my rent paid for by the government, leaving me $1800 in disposable income a month.
1. College was a paid for by a mix of federal, state, and university level funding
2. In California, if you make at or under $1800/mo you qualify for Medicaid and EBT (food stamps)
3. My county does a Section-8 voucher program whereby if you make under a certain amount you enter a pool for vouchers which pay 70% of your rent. Not everyone gets them right away since the waitlist is long, but I was lucky in that my additional circumstances moved me up the list (I'm technically disabled since I'm depressed lmao)

So, I work a job that pays $22.50/hr, so by only working part-time I can maximum my income and welfare benefits.

Where did this idea that America has no welfare come from? We have too much in certain regards because if I'd just work full-time I wouldn't need any help, but I just don't want to.

How much financial aid you get is based on your income or your family's if you are still a dependent. Also, different states provide differing amounts of aid for college. The main issue with US welfare programs is that they are not at all advertised, so many people don't take advantage of them even though they qualify, but depending on the state, millions of people could live very well working part-time or even better working full-time if they knew how to utilize these programs.

That is if you qualify as poor, if you're middle class that pays taxes, toes the line and holds down a full-time job you are fucked, because the poor (you) get the money from the middle class while the middle class has to pay out the nose for things you get discounted/free.

The rich don't pay taxes at all and they can afford whatever they want, just like poor can afford whatever they want while the middle class foots the bill.

Great system.

America has a lot of welfare but most of it is stuck behind bureaucratic nonsense. If you are smart, you can easily take advantage of the system. But if you're dumb, or if you live in a shithole red state, you don't get shit.
