I wonder if having tax breaks apply to everyone that could take them would genuinely cause a Cloward-Piven collapse (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloward%E2%80%93Piven_strategy, it's a strategy for collapsing a welfare state by doing exactly what you described, based on the theory that welfare benefits and tax deductions are not designed to handle 100% use).
