How could you honestly be happy not working, living off the welfare system? What kind of life is that and why would you want to live that way?

I can't help but feel for these good people as I can't understand the welfare mentality either. It's got to be more work to avoid working than working-- but some people don't see it that way. In 1995, my family was in the Great Hanshin Earthquake in Japan. The kindness from the rest of the country and the world was overwhelming. Even the bums who hung around downtown could go to public buildings for temporary housing and food. However, they were soon back to their old haunts, despite the opportunity offered to them.

TRUE COMPASSION would have kicked these two ne'er-do-wells to the curb and told them to start working, and after at least one of them got a job, THEN they would receive non-financial assistance, delivered by the local community.

"Free money" that grows on trees in Washington is not the answer.

Why am I not surprised?

This woman and her family have done more than was called for.

America now has a whole generation of ingrates.

Well, George Bush took everything these people had. What did you expect? j/k.

It's too bad. Houston is having a problem with these refugees too.
