NP> R’ Moshe holds that Today that we have Kollelim, learning in Kollel is a profession.

Well, not “today”, but 2-3 generations back.

1) does R Moshe approve of taking government funds that are allocated for people who are not able to work?

2) what would R Moshe say about situation after leaving kollel, when the person is not able to find a comfortable job, as recommended at the end of Kiddushin?
This problem actually has a solution: yeshiva should be responsible for the well-being of the graduates. If the student later on has job (and because of that) shidduch or marital problems, then yeshiva pays from their direct budget expenses for unemployment; for retraining; for marital counseling; for tuition and apartments for children. As Alter from Navordok said when someone suggested that he will donate a share of his olam haba to someone ilvolved in public mitzvos – how about donating some of your share in olam haze?
