In the US its a descriptor that refers to the lowest economic class, usually minorities or people who are viewed as dirty and lazy. Being "on wellfare" is to boomers a single step up from selling your body for drugs.
hmm, seems "welfare ratio" is an economic measure that I just didn't know about, so you're right. i blame my American brain associating the word "welfare" with hateful rhetoric.
"How do we make society providing for its poorest citizens sound like a bad thing?"
I mean, welfare is a good thing it refers to how well people fare

The idea that in the US people are violently opposed to good things doesn't make the good things bad
