New Orleans had a Welfare program.  In fact, it had very high
participation in the welfare program.  People didn't go wild because
welfare was removed, it was lack of law enforcement that made
(allowed) people to go wild.

As a city with both a high crime rate and a high welfare participation
rate before the Hurricane, I think you are shooting yourself in the
foot by using it as an example.  Welfare (and social security) should
be a safety net of last resort, not an entitlement program for people
to abuse and/or live on perpetually.
