MDD: There is no major outcry by the secular to block people in kollel from receiving minimal welfare. The folks in kollel get very little money, barely enough to feed their family. There is no way to structure the law to block kollel guys from collecting welfare while allowing non-kollel guys from collecting welfare. If they stop one, they stop the other. Do you advocate ending welfare and letting poor children starve? How else do you suppose they would end payments to the poor?
