Im confused, my stance has been a person has a right to vote unless they are a convicted felon. Their social economic or welfare status has nothing to do with their right to vote. 

Are you saying if a person is poor, homeless, disabled, or depend on the government that they shouldnt be allowed to vote?

Yes, so long as a person is on the public dole they should be removed from the voting roll. Their economic or welfare status should absolutely impact their right to vote. As long as they are a ward of the state they should have no say in its function, for allowing them to vote creates moral hazard. There is nothing that says this cannot be, and the original intent of the Constitution was to have a limited franchise elect a Republican form of government that disconnects the federal government from the people. I know this is hard to hear, but frankly a person who cannot manage his own household free of government aid should not be voting on how that government operates. To do so eventually means that people are only voting to keep the gravy train running regardless of the damage it does to the Country as we do today.
