The average starting wage for someone coming off welfare in New York is just slightly above $9 an hour, according to the HRA.

That's what I made in 1989 when I started at my former place of employment, with a college degree in management. It was a slow job market, and not in New York, but still!

“I was on welfare because there were no jobs that interested me,” she recalls.

Must be nice not having to work unless you find a job that interests you. All the time living off the hard work of others.

Regardless of the success of Gingrich’s welfare reform in the 90s, we’re heading back to the past- welfare as we once knew it.

There is a bundle of money in the Porkulus for medicaid, subsidized housing and food stamp program increases, and it is my understanding that work requirements are being reduced and states will be encouraged to sign up more recipients.

"Ah-HA!"

Welfare Reform has been successful.

Time for Zero, San Fran Nan, and Reedy(sic) to screw it up.

Great post, thanks.

Ahhhh, let me see a pharmacy tech makes between $25.-$30. an hour. Hmmm sounds more like the pharmist pay to me, but what do I know. If true all I can say is “Damn, I knew I should have applied when I saw that CVS ad a few years ago offering to train pharmcy techs.”
