When you consider the Democrats super majority control in California, it makes sense. Why would they vote against making $30.00 an hour by sitting on the ass doing absolutely NOTHING!

Why am I not surprised at SC? A while back I did some contract stuff for DSS statewide. 90% of Google maps were right on locating their offices. The 10% were off by miles.

I learned really fast that everyone in those counties knew where to go.

And I’ll bet that doesn’t include the parents getting crazy checks for their childrens’ ADD paid for out of the Social Security Trust Fund — not out of welfare funds.

The next logical step is to organize the welfare clients into political cadres, and to make the amount of their payments somewhat dependent on that type of community “service.”

And if everyone making around $30 an hour and below knew this and acted on it, it would destroy the country in short order.

More are figuring it out each day.

How much longer can the game last?

And until 2010, Maine was pretty much controlled by the Rats and Rhinos. After the 2012 elections the Rhinos are back in control of both house of the legislature.

Not surprising, when I’ve had many potential new hires (factory work, central Kentucky) that they can “make more” by staying at home instead of working. Largely a generational thing, more prevalent in the under-25 year old crowd than any other group, from my experience. A whole generation, lazy to the bone.

Only state shown that comes as somewhat of a surprise is SC.

I was at the check-out in Kroger the other day, behind a woman “paying” for her groceries with a welfare check (WIC) and an EBT card (welfare). She had on nice brand-name clothes, jewelry, a nice cell phone, expensive shoes, etc. I looked like a bag lady compared to her! guess I have to go work to pay for her groceries. P_ssed me off!

$30 an hour?!? Heck with a college education I’m making $9. There isn’t much more here, though.

First, quit accepting welfare: pull your kids out of public school. Then, cut your debts. Cut up the plastic. Cut the cable. Return the second car. Sign your mortgaged house back to the lender. Quit the second job.
Then quit the first one. If you still have a car loan, surrender that car too, and buy one for cash if you can’t live without one. Reexamine your insurance policies, pay as little as possible. Forget restaurants, vacations, movies, toys. Shut off lights and quit using a/c and dishwashers. Cut, cut, cut. Cut your own hair while you’re at it.
You will not only survive, you will be able to hold up your head and encourage others to do likewise. You will not be supporting the government you claim to loathe. You will not be working to spare moochers the effort of working. You will not be working to pay the salaries of looters and tyrants — and baby killers. You can last longer without your money than they can, without your money.
It wouldn’t be forever. It wouldn’t even be a year. It wouldn’t be bloody, you don’t have to shoot anyone, you won’t get arrested.
You love America? You love liberty? Call the IRS and ask them how much you can earn without having to file. Even if you already know. Then, start cutting and don’t stop until you get to that number.
It’s that simple.

It's the Makers vs. the Takers. The upcoming Civil War will be about the desire of the Makers to divorce themselves from the Takers. The Takers include most the Federal and State Governments and the Banksters and Corporations that feed at the public trough. The welfare leeches are just pawns. They are used by the Banksters and Statists to sap the financial and social strength of the Makers making it easier to loot and control them.

The Civil War will be nasty since the Banksters control the Corporate Media and the Statists control the police and military. Plus they have millions of freeloaders and useful idiots on their side who absolutely hate the Makers. But for the Makers its fight or continue to be a slave to the Takers.

Raise import tariffs and put Americans back to work, working for Americans.

It will cost consumers in higher prices, but the net result will be a much richer America where everyone has a job.

I was getting some coffee this morning and thought about this...tax rates, Government spending, waste, fraud, sequestration, on the dole, not on the dole, retirees, public retirees, illegals who work for cash, illegals who are here not working...

What my BA in English mind came up with is the fact the Government has decided, in their infinite wisdom, that the hours, sweat, aging and fruits of the private sector’s labor is MORE IMPORTANT to be GIVEN to PUBLIC EMPLOYEES or GOVERNMENT-DEPENDENT FOLKS vs. the people who provide the capital for them to spend.

It is sort of the backward households that the teenage children take over, abusing mentally or physically their parents. The inmates are running the asylum and their eternal laziness and sense of entitlement HAVE BEEN GIVEN PRIORITY over the PRODUCERS.

See, if you work for a living, you are a sucker, especially if you are working at a low-paying job where the people who come into your business are doing ZILCH and getting your tax dollars to not push a broom, answer phones or ring up people at the register.

The entire system is upside down, the pride of self-determination, thrift, morality and self-denial are systematically being drowned out by the Kardashian-Oscar Party-give-it-to-me-now society that emerged, post Vietnam War era.

I am not Nostradamus, but I can tell you this...one day the credit card (or EBT card), Section 8, SNAP card, AFDC check, subsidized utilities, Medicaid, ObamaPhone and other assorted public and private charities will be finished, and the impact will be that those people will be told the people who took away their lifestyles are the “Evil Rich” who don’t want to share with them. This is 100% opposite the truth as those evil rich have been paying for the party all along, but an agitator like Obama or Jackson could invoke large property destruction and primal or Government-assisted attempts at redistribution of wealth...

There will not be a happy ending to the madness, this is exactly what Cloward & Piven wanted, to overload the system, then take the IRA-401K’s-SEP’s and have Government chop of the remaining wealth as they see fit.

This is not pretend, it’s what the Soros-Frank Marshall Davis-Bill Gates-Sunstein-Holder-Obama-Axelrod-Jarrett want, a new nation based on Communist principles for them to rule over us.

I cannot know the last chapter, but it will be very, very ugly and bloodshed will be unavoidable.

Why would any one want to break their backs for $25.00 an hour? We have to make work more attractive than going on welfare - but I don’t expect that to change. Politicians want voters who’ll re-elect them.

Look for the welfare to keep on expanding.
