“Most people that receive government assistance truly need the help and do not abuse the system”
Bullshit.
/sorry, mods, it is the only apt term
My thoughts exactly. Ya beat me to it.
I’m almost to the point where my stand is that anyone who can neither produce nor do anything that is of monetary worth to anyone else deserves to starve in the woods somewhere unless their own kin or church wants to support them.
You’re right. They all abuse the system. Every last one of them, because that’s how the system is set up. Any money that’s made on the side (under the table) is NEVER reported as it supposed to be. Every single one of them know how the game is played and the social service people who are supposed to catch the cheaters are a complete joke.
Bullshit.
You are absolutely correct.
I lived in a welfare town for 18 long years and was never so glad as the day we moved. We saw welfare abuse constantly and never once saw anyone who had to have it because they *couldn't* work.
I only heard one report ever in my entire life of a person who was on welfare for that reason and the guy had some kind of degenerative nerve wasting disease, was wheelchair bound and slowly dying. His wife supplemented with stuff from the garden and by canning and putting food up and was taking care of him and their children.
But other than that, I can't think of a legitimate case where someone needed it.
