Wisconsin was the first US State in the nation around the end of the 20^th century to attempt to eradicate "welfare" or the Public Assistance benefits comprised of monthly checks, Food Stamps, Medicaid cards, Emergency Assistance, and the rest of the usual menu of benefits and services. That state has been the most successful of th estates to reduce welfare roles, due to radical actions and bipartisan cooperation.

Since that time, Wisconsin has worked hard to keep people working at a living wage and covered by insurance. It must be recalled here, that America's long-term public assistance recipients on Welfare-to-Work tracks suffered from an average of four (4) Severe Mental Disorders (SMDs) at the time of Welfare Reform in the late 1990s - early 2000s. This included much substance/alcohol involvement and domestic violence --

It takes a concerted effort by a large team of Behavioral, Medical, Social Services, Government, and IT Professionals to make a non-welfare culture this happen. Some historians point to world history and announce that the disadvantaged populations globally have always existed and will always continue to exist - but as out-castes and slaves, undocumented immigrants, and others. They say that these individuals are needed to make any economy succeed, so that even a few people can make a living wage and even fortunes. Wisconsin seeks to prove them incorrect. Succeeding as they go, the Workforce teams of the state have and will continue to produce new jobs, helped out by increasing needs for health and medical personnel, as well as IT professionals.

Because early 20^th century "poor houses", and public relief became the infamous "US Welfare System" that helped many people but was also taken advantage of by others through the end of the century and into the next, it seems that a support system for people - American born populations, as well an immigrants and refuges - that need some help and coaching in order to overcome life's difficulties, maintain stability, and make a living - is on ongoing order for American Workforce Development and new jobs.

Meanwhile, Wisconsin has dramatically reduced welfare roles, while offering the ninth highest level in the nation in public assistance benefits, a basic monthly check for a family of three at $517.00, Assistance incudes agressive job training and placement.
