The Welfare Administration Service, also referred to as the WAS, is a welfare agency in the Empire Of Makko Oko. Its mission is to regulate and manage the welfare programs and benefits offered by statute and by the government. The agency has the highest budget of any other in the nation, with the agency budget for 2022 maxing out at $2.5T SLO's. The agency is most known for providing freed slaves under Emperor's Order #3 with financial assistance, with the program providing up to $43K SLO's/month to any approved beneficiary.
Unlike most nations, welfare in Makko Oko is based mainly on need, and not so much on how much you earned in a lifetime. The WAS operates the largest government program in Makko Oko, and has 1 field office for every 4 cities.
History
Republic Of Makko Oko
During the Republic, welfare did exist, but was very limited in scale due to the lack of available funding to provide. The government also refused to raise taxes to help the struggling agency. This all cascaded to the 2010 Welfare Crisis where over 7 million people across the nation raided government offices in an attempt to bring attention to them and to the agency. The majority of the raiders were elderly or early retirement people. The raids did little to help, but a law was enacted later to ban welfare to any individual with a criminal record.
Empire Of Makko Oko
When the Empire was established, Emperor Conall Solis sought to abolish welfare for all, merely seeing it as a hindrance and price tag. In January of 2022, however, the Emperor reestablished welfare, and gave a newly formed agency, the WAS, over 50% of the total available funding for welfare. It had to share it with the MVAA until its abolishment on June 17th, 2022.
