We SHOULD be upset when we see things like this! For years, it’s been minorities who have taken advantage of our welfare system, but we now have a new class of welfare recipients, white welfare mothers, who intentionally do not marry their child’s father so that they can collect assistance. And it seems as if the parents of these girls are just fine with this!

I don’t know the race of the women in the story that was posted, and it certainly doesn’t matter. Wrong is wrong!

Welfare programs were created as a bridge to help out families, short term, but as we all know, it is now a way of life, generation after generation, for many, many families. And those of us who still have work ethics are forced to subsidize this selfish way of life for those who will not take responsibility and provide for themselves and their own families! And it’s only going to get worse.

I intentionally left the race out so that we could focus on the injustice of the system, not the race of the recipients.

Amen!There are too many pin heads who`ll spout the usual anecdotes but it took plenty of white people to drive up the numbers of those who don`t pay taxes, or those who rely on some amount of gov mooching, to the levels that they`ve reached today.I`ve see it often enough for long enough because I live in a predominantly white, middle income area near Akron, Ohio.

State governments should only be involved in disability and unemployment issues. No food aid, no pension schemes (like Social Security), no welfare, no health insurance programs. And the Federal government, needless to say, should not be involved in ANY of the above six items. You would probably see a lot less welfare queenism if such was the case.

So true, being a “single mom” has become an entitlement. No questions asked, don’t bother to check if the boyfriend is living in the apartment. This is a way of life.
One of the things that really angers me is the section 8 and subsidized housing that has been built since the Great Society programs of LBJ. We have spend BILLIONS on government housing. The Democrat controlled welfare/housing/medicaid bureaucracies do not care to investigate who is abusing the system.
