Tailmon, how do you suppose the welfare system should be fixed?
There will always be loopholes. There will always be millionaires on welfare.
No matter how you think it can be "fixed".

Our new HR director fixes Workman's Comp leechers by making a list of "Light Duty" jobs which are given to the Handler and the Doctors.
They then make the people come into work and do fairly annoying, menial work. Like sorting bolts in bins.
So rather than staying at home and getting paid, they have to come into work and be bored to death (Still doing work well within their doctor's limitations. This makes them heal faster, and be less likely to slack off and mooch off the system. He's even had places where they have set up some chairs in the break room and make the employees watch various saftey and operations videos and fill out questionaires. Anything to limit their time sitting around at home, still getting paid.
Maybe something to this effect could be applied to welfare. Why not mandate community service for those recieving welfare. X or Y hours per week. This way those that are recieving it for legitimate reasons continue to, and those that are trying to ride the system and not have to work suddenly have to do work in order to keep their free money, making it less appealing to the free riders.
