This is a radio interview with a 32 year old in Austin, TX, who thinks there is nothing wrong with taking welfare even though she's capable of working. She's a second generation welfare con artist and expects her kids to be the same. Listen at:

Oh, she has a job alright. Voting Democrat in every election. Or at least making her name available for someone else to vote Democrat if she’s to lazy to get her fat ass off the couch and down to the voting booth once every two years.

Not surprising....and she is pretty much espousing similar views as the generational welfare recipients I know.

I have no problem helping those who need it depending on the case but I have no respect for those that sit on their ass and get money while we have to deal with BS at work to live.

I have gotten old working to support these losers.
Now, I think I’m going to look for a way to join ‘em. Live in my little condo in FL, go biking and kayaking, join friends of Library, read books, and let the taxpayers support me...

How smart are the cheats? There are plenty of women with children out there on welfare whose worse halfs are gainfully employed and even own businesses!

At least at the beginning of it I thought so but I could be wrong.

Back in the mid-eighties I lived in a welfare neighborhood. We weren’t on welfare but the apartment complex changed after we moved in. One day I walked outside and saw two little kids hanging out in the parking lot, they were not in school. I asked why they weren’t in school.
They answered they didn’t need school. The boy was going to be a drug dealer and the girl said she’d get pregnant and go on welfare.

Decades ago, I knew people who were third generation career welfare queens, being coached by their mothers on how to maximize benefits.

The highest effective tax rates in our economy, are from the withdrawal of benefits, as welfare recipient begins to earn wages - often over 80% of the wages earned.

Those perverse incentives are not accidental - it is leftist Democrats keeping people down, and keeping them on the Democrat plantation.

there are lots of people like this but they’re not ratting themselves out on talk radio. The caller is acting a part.

I think most of us agree with you. However, I’d like to see a system like they have in Germany. If you collect welfare, you show up every morning at 7AM to clean toilets in public buildings, sweep public streets...whatever needs to be done. Usually, the people only stay on welfare until they find a “real” job. Also, there is a social stigma for those who are seen cleaning public buildings, which also works against them. Welfare recipients who have children are allowed to place them in gov’t day care, but they work at a reduced wage because of it. Sounds like a plan.

Ooooooooooooh! That sounds so “insensitive” and “meanspirited”. We wouldn’t want to upset the welfare snowflakes.
