It's your typical mentally-ill crap, one more of many wacko sites that spew the same contrived nonsense. Anyone reading that carp and believing it is either hopelesslly ignorant or severely mentally ill. I looked at the “Newshoggers” website (shamanic link above).

As soon as the girls were old enough to reproduce, they'd get knocked up and pump out a few welfare whelps. That was their occupation, their entire future. To sit on their asses and collect freebies for raising the next generation of welfare recipients. I don't care what anyone says this is 100% wrong and is a large part of what is wrong in our society.

On the third of every month, you'd see these 280+ lb women pushing shopping carts full of huge cuts of meat, 20-30 lb boxes of chicken, etc etc etc out of the grocery store. All of it paid for with food stamps. There was a Chinese restaurant and market owner who would hang out in the walkway between a couple of stores and buy foodstamps for 30 cents on the dollar. The police caught him and less than a week later, he was out there buying them again. We had customers who were second and third generation welfare mommas. They would pop out a couple of puppies at 17 and 18 and go on the public dole for the rest of their lives. Am I the only one who sees this as a waste of potential as well as resources?

I used to deliver big screen tvs and home theatre systems to the housing projects. What to hear a good one? As long as they were "renting" the item, it wouldn't count against their eligibility for public housing. If they can afford $50 a week for a big screen and another $25 for a home theatre system to go with it, why are the tax payers paying the bulk of their housing and most (if not all) of their utilities? We were furnishing their entire two story rowhouses. $150+ a week in rent to the rent to own store, but only $300 a month for the public housing unit. We had people in public housing seriously gaming the system. One couple got a divorce when he got a job as a truck driver. He was taking in $50k but as long as they were divorced, she could claim that her only income was the child support and get the two story rowhouse rent free. As long as the tractor trailer wasn't parked in front of the house from Monday morning to Friday afternoon, the housing authority wouldn't know. Here's an outrage you probably don't know about. There's a national organization for public housing residents. They hold annual conventions, at taxpayer expense, in such business related destinations as San Juan, Puerto Rico to discuss how to squeeze the tax payers for even newer and fancier public housing units. It's time to start actually reforming the welfare system. It's amazing how well it works when you tell people, either get a job or go hungry. You do not need to tell me about it.
