What was so problematic about the welfare superpower system?

The welfare superpower system was problematic due to its inefficiencies and lack of responsiveness, often creating dependency rather than promoting self-sufficiency. It faced criticism for fostering bureaucratic overhead and inadequate service delivery, leading to disparities in access and support. Additionally, the system sometimes perpetuated social inequities, failing to address the root causes of poverty and economic disparity, which undermined its intended goals.


Who was president in the us when welfare started?

Welfare is a rather vague term. I would say that the federal government got into welfare in a big way when Franklin Roosevelt was president. As you probably know, welfare is not one of powers explicitly given to the federal government by the US Constitution and every power not explicitly given is left to the states. It took the Supreme Court quite some time to find ways around this legal problem. States counties and cities had poor farms and orphans' homes and food kitchens for a long time before the feds got into the act.
