Hey BlackD 
No, we do not have Ghetto's, there are NO food stamps.
We do have some low income housing, but those houses are moslty in the what we call "People's Neighbourhoods" or "Volksbuurt" in Dutch.
When you have no work or income, we have something called "Governmental Welfare" (Bijstand) in which you get a monthly fund from the government, which equals about 1336.65 US Dollars
However, you ARE required by law to turn over your financial data every month for scrutiny by the insitution that governs your welfare. If you have earned money, be it taxd or untaxed, they will know or find out and cut you off the program and fine you in the process.
I have never been in there, sinds I have a job and earn my money by working hard.
