Villains in Addams Family movies go to really unnecessary lengths to defraud them of the family fortune. These people just give it away on whims all the time. If I just walked into the house and started wearing their clothes and spending their money, they wold start introducing me as Cousin Intruder and forget there was ever a time I didn’t live with them.

This is true.  Possibly, though, there would be consequences, since fate seems to favor them.   It’s quite possible that, in time, you would forget that you weren’t always an Addams, too.   

I fail to see the downside here.

Idk how canon this is, but, in the Addams Family musical, there’s a part where Gomez & Morticia each admit that they BOTH thought Grandma was the other’s mother. So like. Who the FUCK is that old woman?

If work requirements don’t consistently usher low-income workers into work — let alone work that pays a living wage — then what’s the point?

The point is labor exploitation, enforcing racist and patriarchal social norms, and trying to kill those poor people who can’t be easily used for exploitable labor or to use their conditions as a threat to others.
