My 56 tear old daughter is on disability ( bogus ) and gets the equivalent of $45,000 pretax income by my calculations from state and federal funds. I rationalize this as being a rebate foe the taxes I have paid and still pay, as do my other two children. But it pains me to think about it after paying for her college degree. She is also not the only one of her generation in this situation.
Although my idea is unworkable, what I would like to see is this — People on government assistance (Welfare) should be moved to tiny towns in Liberal states (Maine, Vermont, MA, etc.. They should be provided some sort of government housing, and they should receive cheese, powdered milk, beans and rice every month.
Not much more. It should be an awful life. And if they proceed to have children, they should get less food. If they agree to be sterilized, they can have more food. It’s their choice.
Of course, if they don’t want life to suck, they can be moved to a real place and find real work. It’s up to them.
