Oh, man, and Jussie’s series got canceled, too. Poor guy is going to be wandering the Chicago streets, dining in Subways and waiting for a pair of buffed African-American white supremacists to throw bleach at him. Oh, wait, he’s already tried that. Can the unemployment line be far behind? Three hots and a cot in the Cook County Calaboose?

Ten bucks says that they find an Osama Obama appointee to shoot that down.

I bet most of the 50,000 have an “attitude-disability”. Their crappy attitude and absence of both integrity and a work ethic, leave them not wanting a job. Mainly, they need to learn the 3 s’s: shower, show-up and shut-up. Do you job.

The 400,000 illegals in Chicago, a sanctuary city, don’t seem to have trouble finding work, or getting food stamps. OK, probably less than half that are adult illegals, but still.

Key takeaways from this
the countys 826,000 food stamp recipients
826K? WTH?
Single adults receive, on average, $200 a month in food aid.
That's a lot of Doritos and diet Coke - gotta watch a lotta TV whilst consuming said essentials

Donald Fagen’s (half of the Steely Dan duo) first solo album (”Nightfly”) reflecting on growing up in the 50s.
Tuesday Weld was an actress on “Dobie Gillis” and referenced in the song, “New Frontier”
The album is a masterpiece...as is the video for this song!

6% “might” lose food stamps.
Those who think there is only 6% getting this who don’t deserve it, raise your hand....and then slap yourself.
Only 6% fraud (or corruption) in the food stamp program in Cook County (or anywhere else)? Yeah, I believe that.
As an aside, one wonders how this would read if Republicans were running Cook county for 80 years. Think that might have been mentioned in the “news” article?

I wonder how much of an effect that will have on local supermarkets/Wal-Mart?

1) thanks very much for the info and the video.
2) I may have missed the song but I didn’t escape awareness of Tuesday Weld when I was in junior high (”middle school”) and high school and the show was first run.
On the Naked City series 1962 episode “A Case Study of Two Savages” she played a ruthless serial killer with Rip Torn based on Bonnie and Clyde (real life news stories—before the famous 1968 movie). Still had the emanation of “I always get my way. Get used to it.” Like Kate Upton today.

Quite frankly, a lot of the folks who are not able to meet those requirements will not participate in the program and just drop out, said Grace Hou,
Im not seeing a problem here.
