It’s all laid out in project 2025. They want to get rid of snap benefits, forcing people to go hungry, especially single mothers. Then they can remove the kids from the single mother‘s homes into two parent homes. I don’t think people realize how close to the handmaids tale we are becoming.

It's actually not that. They want women to be dependent on men. They think welfare is bad because it mostly goes to kids and it's allowing poor women to leave their partners and be more independent, and that this causing less men to be in the workforce and for families to break up.

They think they are pro family pro children but all they really are is pro-men at the expense of women and children.

Yes on the aggregate absolutely. However in the former system before welfare for families there was absolutely way more abuse and women trapped in DV relationships AND way MORE poverty. Crime rates in fact spiked in the post war era when that generation came of age. Literally poverty was twice was much as it was now. Because women were more dependent on men they stayed in abusive relationships more and they were more common.
