So, we see that every one of the 140,000 moochers who went off the rolls of state welfare simply became federal moochers claiming SSDI instead. There are no new jobs, and no fewer moochers, they just get paid from federal taxpayers instead of state. QED.

That is correct.

I am from Michigan and have my soon-to-be retirement home up in a little village in the northern woods.

When I was a teen a woman moved in across from our house. She had two sons and did not have a job. The State of Michigan was paying for the house and she was on every kind of free money assistance. This woman never held a full time job, always complained when she had some type of job, and never held one job for more than a year. The State paid for her house (she is now the owner) and just recently she applied and was given new siding and a new steel roof while I have worked all my life and have to pay for my upcoming roof replacement. She has received many free upgrades and improvements to her house over the years and has NEVER paid a penny for any of them.

The last time I was up there she complained that her Michigan welfare was cancelled so she had been approved for SSDI. This morbidly obese woman's youngest son got married and followed in her footsteps. Both he and his wife are on SSDI and they are currently trying to get their son on it by claiming he cannot read at his proper grade level! There are many people like her living in this village.

I am so sick of paying for low-life, uneducated, lazy slobs who get so much for free while I work my butt off and pay my own way.

Don't get me wrong, I do not want free stuff. I work and earn for what I have, I just want their hands out of my wallet.

Low-life, lazy, yes, but hardly uneducated. They've learned all they need to know to game the system for a living!
