End Poverty in Gaduridos; Expanding welfare as support is provided for single parents.

For 9 years, the EPIG Program has been ongoing in Gaduridos and it's safe to say that it has produced results. However, just because a goal is met, does it mean it is not worth going above and beyond? As long as poverty exists, there is always more work to do. Or so the Garcia Administration thinks. As such, what's the point of focus for this round of welfare reforms? Single parents.

All too often, we hear the case of single parents being forced to work to provide for their children or even several jobs in foreign countries. While Gaduridos can consider itself lucky for not seeing cases of single parents having to work several jobs to make ends meet, the idea that a single parent, already at a disadvantage, needing to struggle to provide basic goods for their child is something that is abhorrent.

As such, efforts are being made to provide support specifically for single parents. Whether it be a parent abandoned by a spouse, death or any other reason, the Federal Government will provide support. Food stamps, federal aid for housing, you name it. No parent must suffer in trying to provide for their children. Every Gaduri citizen, as far as the Garcia Administration is concerned, will provide a life of plenty, health and happiness. 

So far, the EPIG Program has largely seen one of its goals accomplished. The establishment of a welfare state. Arguably Gaduridos can no longer be considered a Progressive State, and instead be properly called a Welfare State. However, there is always more work to be done, and as many Gaduri change their views on the government, going from a simple guardian of liberties and the pact of governance, the idea of the government acting as a home for every Gaduri has been gaining widespread attention. What exactly does that mean? Well, it's as it sounds where the country is akin to a home for every Gaduri. Where they are provided the best possible life. No good parent would willingly discriminate upon their children, or allow their child to falter when a good future is always available. No household would allow that. And so, in this case, Gaduridos is a household that will not allow it's citizens to falter and will present the best possible life it can for every Gaduri.
