Look up Maine’s recent experience with increased work requirements for welfare.

I'm looking and I don't see anything about taking people off welfare magically creating jobs.
In fact, I don't even see anything about taking people off welfare in Maine.
I see welfare reforms mentioned in Maine and positive results as a result of those reforms, and let me take this opportunity to say that I am in no way claiming that the welfare system isn't in serious need of reform.
But doing away with it altogether is what I thought we were discussing. That's a horse of a different color.
Welfare reform is a Republican ideal. Completely axing welfare is a Libertarian ideal. Thus the importance of the distinction in the context of this discussion.
