wow... i just watched that interview... scary... i voted scary (there is a vote tab at the bottom of the vid) - being on welfare (counting all the benefits) having a standard of living that cannot even be MET by a 69k/yr job. that takes away ANY and all incentive to do anything but 'gimmee gimmee gimmee'...

Their children will end up in the same system, why try harder, why get a good education, why go to college, our school system isn't as broken as the people who encourage this type of lifstyle,
People are rewarded for bad choices, sorry, if your a single mom, somewhere you made a bad choice, I know it's not popular, but this walking on eggshells to spare feelings has got to stop.

The rest of us ( those that get up and go to work everyday) are paying for these bad choices, we got kids also, we got bills, we want things also, but we got a government that wants to give to those of us that foot the bill the biggest tax hike in the history of the world to continue paying for bad choices.
Max, most people I see on welfare have never had a job, getting knocked up and put in the system is a way of life, these people will never work and stand on their own 2 feet, they are professional victims.

If you offer ANYONE without a job making $69,000 a year or even $40,000 a year they will take it in a heartbeat. This is based on a mother who must have at least 3-5 kids and accept everything that is available. What a bunch of crap.

Wrong Janet, I see them everyday, have no intentions of working, and worse, most will continue having kids even after they know they can't take care of the first one.

I think Starr Parker would be a very good pick for Romney's Cabinet.
She worked her way out of the ghetto and poverty and Uncle Sam's Democrat Plantation Food Stamps and became successful on her own.
But all the ones that stayed behind, doing what they're told, hate her for leaving and making something of herself.
God Bless her.

We are well on our way to collapse, I predict food shortages and higher prices are next, the government is keeping these people down, they have no desire to learn whats really going on, their bought and paid for.

Tenaj> It's a badge of honor to be blocked by the Holler Dwelling Sheep molester rdgrnr.
Wear that badge proudly.
I've been blocked by him,sully16,MADDOG,Todd,Jarasan aka dingleberry,Coin Toss,Jap69.
It's because they HATE The Truth and Anyone That tells it therefore being blocked by them means that YOUR TRUTH hit home.
Congratulations.
They can't help themselves though from calling you names and addressing you else where because they like their Free Speech rights but NOT yours.
They ALL will also claim the mantle of Christianity while calling you vile names and disrespecting you Just Like Jesus Would Do.
Don't you wonder why they don't hate Jesus instead of embracing HIM because HE was Nothing like Them??

Wrong Sully, $69,000 a year? the average person with scupples will commit a crime for a $69,000 dollar a year job. This article is ridiculously inflated.

No, think about all the costs...food , cash , daycare, heating assistance, medicaid, some people here get as much as $5000.00 in food and $2000.00 cash, who do you think pays for that kid to be delivered, the tax payers thats who. well baby visits, vaccines, in michigan you can take your ebt cash, fill your gas tank then go to the casino and grab out some more cash for gambling,
If you seen the fraud I've seen, you'd mess yourself, there are people collecting for kids that don't exist, fake birth certs, the system is so clogged they don't have enough investigators.
I feel for the people who are in true need, I mean they are skin and bones got this look in their eyes like their aint' t no hope anywhere, thats who this is designed for, my church, feeds the homeless twice a month, these people can't seem to get help, these morons living in 250 thousand dollar homes collecting food stamps, driving the most expensive cars and always got time for a vacation somewhere.
The people on welfare that I work with, plain refuse to work more than 15 hours, constantly calling in sick, we got profit sharing and full benefits, they don't want it, the state will foot the bill for it all. Then they do things to get fired, stupid.

Hey jan-jan,
The average person like you would commit a crime for 69k but the average civilized person wouldn't.
You act like 69k is big money or something.
BTW, what are scupples?
Are those Hot Pockets with big scoops on 'em so you can scoop up gravy?
