I wuish that cartoon was a joke!!
Los Angeles schools had classes in how to get maximum government benefits and it was part of a test to graduate from high school!
In the 70s I used to go up to a market and buy beer for the employees after work and one day there was a hot blond buying things with food stamps and she went outside and got in her new Corvette with a USC sticker in the rear window.
We’re totally screwed!
