I honestly tried...I did. I read pretty far into this piece. A bleeding heart litany of egregious excess in government entitlements supporting slothful habits. In the case of this article, words like emigrate and other cute euphemisms are used for the [ooga-booga] word, “illegal.”

The prime character, a 40 year old woman with diabetes and a $430/month grocery/junkfood card. NO mention is made of the other entitlements I’d bet my paycheck she has like Section 8 housing, TANF or SSDI, or WICs if any of her children are under 5, and of course, that whopping big several thousand dollar EITC check every year. I didn’t see to see where a husband, or a baby daddy was in all this either. You see, it makes a better case for the above if he’s not around.

The point is, these articles focus on children and what their parents are doing to them and trying to make out like it is our problem - that WE are the cause. The real problem is that the children were not taken away from her and her ass deported back to Mexico if she cannot prove she is a citizen.

So here’s a cue for articles like this. when they mention SNAP, just picture a big ole wagon wheel. That SNAP is only one spoke of that entitlement wheel the subjects get that rolls them effortlessly throughout their subsidized lives at our expense.

I plowed through all that. I found interesting the politician (who’d great hopes going in) realized he couldn’t fix this. Which got me to thinking. As usual the Left and big government ALWAYS screw things up, then keep digging that hole, bigger and bigger.

Instead of sex education and all the time schools spend in massaging Susie’s and Tommy’s (and Maria’s and Pedro’s) victimization, social justice, non-violence triggers, we should demand that schools return to the basics.

I know. I know.

In a way, we ARE the cause. We pay her to live this way. We pay her babydaddies to knock her up and disappear to some unknown street corner to sell drugs or rob liquor stores. All of the moral decay found in America's poor is subsidized by us, the idiot taxpayers who allow it.
