I have to write a 200 words response to the following questions and respond to 2 students with 200 word response total 600 words answers You must post at least three responses (200+ words minimum for each post). Please see the syllabus for additional information on the requirements for discussion forums. 1. If more than 60 percent of the federal budget is “mandatory spending,” what is left to cut? What economic goals do categories of mandatory spending support? What programs should be abolished or cut? Should any programs be expanded? If so, identify which ones and explain why they should be expanded by agencies such as the Red Cross. Comment.
2. Social Welfare is the most debatable topic in American policy politics, yet many Americans are frustrated by those who sit and collect a check every month without any desire to improve themselves. I often wonder if welfare creates more poverty and laziness. Comment.

Comment, What went wrong? Is Florida heading toward a crisis, and why?
