Strongly agree

Fewer, and ensure benefits go to those that need it most

The centre-left generally supports policies that ensure welfare benefits go to those who need it most. They may advocate for means-testing or other measures to target assistance to the most vulnerable populations. For example, the Australian Labor Party has supported means-testing for certain welfare benefits to ensure they are targeted effectively.

Fewer, current benefits do not provide enough support

Fewer

More, reform the system so that it supplements, rather than replaces, a working income

The centre-left often supports reforms that encourage work while still providing a safety net for those in need. For example, the Earned Income Tax Credit in the United States is a policy supported by both Democrats and Republicans that supplements low-income workers' earnings.
