For those that work, nothing. For those that do nothing, everything.
Welcome to America, enjoy your time here.

Amen to this article. We are drowning and they live much better than we do.
All the welfare moms I knew while attending Cuyahoga Community College in downtown Cleveland got food stamps, ADC, an apartment, transportation costs and their schooling paid for. Every one of them worked under the table at a club or had a side business.
In the meantime, I worked 40 hours cleaning rooms and fulltime school I paid for.

Hi hsmomx3. If you really want your blood pressure to go up- check out the story here in Jacksonville of a bus driver who purchase a house in her maiden name and applied for and received a Habitat for Humanity house in her married name...then rented it out to turn a tidy profit.

Not to worry, many of the units will be trashed in short order. Not all of them, but many.
In the 1980's I had been in Taylor, Cabrini, I.B. Wells and more.
At one time they were nice.

Don't fret...
In less than 10 years, the skanks living in that "public housing" will reduce it to an unlivable slum....
Then, you get to build them a new home!
End Welfare for "repeat offenders".. folks that have been there for more than a few years.
Think about it....the more you subsidize something, the more of it you get.
Being poor should be uncomfortable enough, that no one stays there generation after generation......
If their family, friends, church or neighbors think so little of them as people that they won't help --- why should I?

These are the same type of people who feel that they're entitled to preferential treatment, as far the college admissions process goes.

I've been floating the idea on FR of White Reparations®, to be paid as restitution to taxpayers and their children who paid for the Great Society, by those who squandered the opportunities given them.
From those that have, to those that need, as determined by Ted Kennedy

In Portland Oregon, subsidized housing has been built on the riverfront, in a VERY nice and fashionable neighborhood.

GGGGGRRRRRR!!!
I have a neighbor, young girl with an 11 mon old child. She works, but is still able to get food stamps. Some of us were wondering this morning where OUR food stamps were!!
It wasn't always this way. Here's a quote for y'all. From Why America Doesn't Work, by Colson and Eckerd (emphasis mine)....
"American charity at the turn of the last century truly lived up to its name and definition of compassion and benevolent goodwill. Tens of thousands of local charitable agencies and religious groups around the country were intimately involved in the lives of the poor. They visited them in their homes; they taught them basic living skills and helped them find jobs. Many took abandoned, alcoholic or drug-addicted women often with their children into their own homes, training them to work and integrating them back into family and community. Thousands were given shelter, food and a place to being a new life. The poor were not given handouts, THEY WERE NOT GIVEN THE MONEY EARNED BY OTHERS TO CONTINUE THEIR SELF-DESTRUCTIVE LIFESTYLES; the poor were given tools to create independence and dignity in their lives. The charity of one hundred years ago was not one of entitlement, but of ennoblement."
They are stealing our money and giving it to others!!!!
I think it was Paul (in one of his new testament letters?) who said that, if you don't work, you don't eat.
I agreed 100% with everything in the article.

Something magic happens when you buy an old, beatup house and fix it up yourself. It's more "home" than any other place possibly could be. Something magic happens to you too when you finally decide to tackle something yourself because you just can't afford to hire it done. When it's done you're more pleased with it than you ever could have been if someone else did it for you.
Liberals just don't seem to understand it, or if they do, they're intent on cheating other people out of that fantastic feeling. Funny, I guess the liberals are still the slavemasters at heart.

When will people like you ever get it? You are here to produce for those who will not produce for themselves. You are the host for the parasite. You can thank FDR.

Great article! Thanks for posting it. I always like Craig's articles and I've been posting them on my
club's website as they are released.
