They are the people giving them the money. Stipulations are attached to giving money. Its not new. Food Stamps can only be spent on food. If you are getting funds then you'll have to take the budgeting course. The issue here is that once the course is made mandatory only the people who are hell bent on not getting the message will be the ones who just wont budget.

I don't get why some people seem to be under the impression that people who get welfare would not be open to learning. They are. Sensible people do sensible things. Once they learn how to budget they will budget. If they dont know how then they wont.

Its true that you can lead a horse to water but you cant him/her drink, but you cannot expect a horse to drink water you have not led him/her to.
