meaning of "some people take welfare because the jobs they can get don't pay a living wage," then absolutely I agree.
In fact a friend of mine quit her job when she was nine months pregnant because federal assistance and being a SAHM was a better deal for her and her family (and she wanted to be s SAHM) - and I do have mixed feelings about that, especially as she had an unemployed hubby at home to take care of baby and had always given all her money to her church instead of saving any ("God will provide" . But, well, it was a low-paid unrewarding job and I could see her side of it.
If jenner meant it in the unsympathetic way of "people on welfare are too lazy to work," that's different. But since I don't know anything about Jenner (don't watch tv) I am happy to give her the ben of the doubt.
