There is a “reverse litter” campaign asking people to pledge to pick up ten items of trash on Tuesdays.
I want to know why they are going to businesses with employees instead of asking the 15-20% of adults who are unemployed / disabled.

And here comes the ACLU and other human rights groups saying it’s demeaning that they have to work for their benefits.

Absolutely no reason able bodied folks receiving public assistance to report for part time work to help the nation in one way or another.

Good grief, three dayz a week, five to six hours a day picking up trash along highways, cleaning/maintaining public parks, data entry in an office environment. There are thousands of positions that can be filled to help support America.

Requiring work for food stamps? They might as well have burned three crosses on MLK’s grave!

Would love to see a bus load of them picking up trash along the highways and byways here in the Upstate of SC. I like this area but am disappointed with the level of littering that goes on. Just picking up my neighborhood is tiresome enough, and impossible to get beyond the neighborhood. Littering pick up would be great jobs for some of these able-bodied citizens to give back to their community.

"20 hours per week" for $100 worth of food per month. That's about $1.25 per hour. Looks like quite a deal for the socialist political class: the great and wonderful "makers" (NIMBYs, regulators and all).

In MAINE
Headline:
This Is What Happened When Maine Forced Welfare Recipients To Work For Their Benefits “

” the numbers showed a significant drop from 12,000 enrollees to just over 2,500.”

Imagine how much that would save on a countrywide basis!

"Food stamp recipients didn't cause the financial crisis, Wall Street did," said Obama at this past January’s State of the Union address.

Obama the incompetent bullshit!

Unrestrained deficit spending and manipulation of "employment" statistics and unlimited welfare programs and rolls caused the financial crisis.

The federal government has no Constitutional authority to give welfare benefits of any kind PERIOD. This issue came up multiple times before the 20th century, and it was clearly understood. Private charity is far more efficient (and better for the soul), and if that is insufficient then leave it to the states to figure out a plan. There should be no food stamps, no welfare, no disability, no FEMA to bail people out after natural disasters, and no federally subsidized healthcare.

How ‘bout restore ‘charity’ to where it rightfully exists: The People (be that the church/friends/neighbors, etc.) and the 5th A.

Govt has NO capacity, no ability, to discern ‘tragedy’ let alone ‘need’.

This is but another band-aide on a festering wound.

Not in Boy Cuomo’s New York - he wants to increase payments and increase taxes - a socialist utopia that hasn’t gond unnoticed by the thousands of people escaping from New York (taxes) each year.
