The poverty-assistance paradox
2013
Jánky, Béla | Varga, Daniel
We present a model of preferences on welfare transfers, which incorporates the recipient’s wealth as a signal of needs and deservingness. We show that a paradox may arise: the poorer the recipient is, the less transfer he/she will get. Implications might include the negative impact of targeting assistance to the poorest on public support for welfare.
