Waheedah Shabazz-El, one of many Philadelphians bused to Harrisburg, likened the cuts to imposing a slow-motion death sentence on some simply for being poor.

Without it, she explained, some former recipients will have to do without critical medications or services. Others, they warned, might revert to selling drugs or other crimes to sustain themselves.

Spoken like a true criminal. No where does the article mention that Shabazz-El was busted and spent time in prison on a drug charge. I wonder how most American's, including a sizable portion of Rats, would react if they knew that a majority of community organizers never had a real job and often times are criminals.

Decades old, the general assistance program primarily served adults without children who do not qualify for other welfare programs.

That about says it all. This is a program for able-bodied adults without kids. God forbid they get a job to pay for those bus passes and $3.00 medical co-pays.

Nothing an NGO can’t do.

How could they get there to protest, having $200 less a month from other people’s pockets?

[Secret Agent Man]

If they become criminals and are caught their housing and medical and food needs again are taken care of by taxpayers. These are people who just don’t want to live without surviving on other people’s money. Welfare recipient. Criminal. Convict. That is in essence the threat the guy just outlined will happen.

Oh he made that name up on the spot.

“I’m Weedy Shabuzz-Bong”

Get a frickin’ JOB! They could make $200 a month slinging hambrgers.
