This is only cash assistance and is literally reserved for people that don’t work at all. NYC has 5.5 million adults under 65. 12% of the working population.
This is a misleading article because only the *poorest* of the poor qualify for these checks. Plenty of others getting EBT, TANF, Housing vouchers, SNA, Medicaid, etc.

"City Councilman Robert Holden (D-Queens) said he believes the city needs to follow the lead of former mayors Rudy Giuliani and Michael Bloomberg and push programs requiring welfare recipients to work, rather than rely on perpetual handouts."
You might actually need welfare one day. Stop looking down at it
This has always been the handout argument but the math doesn’t support it. In order for welfare to exist, the majority cannot be on welfare. The vast majority of people on welfare are the same people decade after decade.
I have a restive working in welfare office.
She has grandmas at the age of 35 coming in demanding money. When asked why they can’t work once, a riot almost broke out.
It’s generational welfare. It’s what they know, it’s all they know.
Human waste basically.
