Didn't they find that out with welfare?

You mean the WELFARE system that rewarded the high-rate morsemen
with fancier titles and better privileges, such as in the
"incentive plan" licensing system? Yes. It worked very well,
didn't it?

You seem to have the idea of welfare backward, Len, and you've
introduced a factual error. There was never a class of license under
Incentive Licensing, which provided an upgrade for merely passing a
morse exam. To go from the General to Advanced, one passed only a
theory exam. To step up from the Advanced to the Amateur Extra, one
passed a theory exam and a higher speed morse exam.

BUZZZ wrong answer Dave there was such a class. the Tech Plus class and
it exists today like the advanced and Novice classes

get your facts straight before you start casting stones

Siting to await the evasions that are likely to follow catching another
of MMM in another error of fact

In a welfare system, you get something for doing nothing. You stick
your hand out and someone gives you something.
