Sounds to me like Bauer is just shooting his mouth off. I don't see him offering alternatives, like compulsory work for the city/county, with child care provided. I wonder if he could put up with the alternatives if he did cut people's welfare. Like an overnight increase in the number of robberies, while people resort to anything just to survive. Does he realise how much it costs to house people in prison compared to paying them paltry amountsd of welfare? Whose taxes does he plan to squander on the likely resulting number of prison inmates once he cuts people's welfare?
