We know that in Blank’s article, there are various ways in which welfare will alter the actions taken by individuals. Consider the following welfare proposals, and how the actions taken by individuals would change.
(a) Family caps; each additional child, above some maximum number, provides no more in welfare benefits.
(b) In-kind benefits for workfare (welfare where benefits are tied to you having a job), such as free (or reduced price) childcare.
(c) Mandated weekly job fairs for individuals on welfare in the state capital.
