If you prefer welfare to joining the military, or going to work in the oil patch (A&W is apologizing for having to raise their prices to cover labour costs & they still can't keep people), you're going to get no sympathy from me. Don't want those kind of jobs even though they're hiring? Fine... but then don't whine to me about how little welfare pays.
Think of the low payments of welfare as an INCENTIVE to get off your ass and do something different with your life.

Yes, it is.
Contrary to your claims, the military doesn't ask you if you are from the ghetto if you apply.
Contrary to your claims, the oil patch and mines don't ask where you were born if you apply.
Contrary to your claimss, charities and community service organizations don't ask if you were born in a ghetto before deciding whether to accept you as a volunteer or not.
You have the equal opportunity to work your ass off, pick yourself up when you fall, and move forward.
Claiming that the world screwed you, that you can't get hired because you are from the ghetto, is just bullshit. And loser bullshit at that.

Happy to help you with that:
- Linda Taylor of Chicago used 14 aliases to obtain $150,000 for medical assistance, cash assistance and bonus cash food stamps. Dhe went from district to district with many disguises, using more than 100 aliases.
- Dorothy Woods, who claimed 38 non-existent children.
- Esther Johnson, who collected $240,000 for more than 60 fictitious children
- Arlene Otis, indicted for 613 counts of illegally receiving $150,839 in welfare funds.
Meanwhile, last year the LA Times reported on statistics showing that 24% of new welfare applications in San Diego County contain some form of fraud.
Let's not forget the little thieves while looking at the big thieves...
Let's not forget those collecting welfare while working under the table. Who are committing income tax fraud at the same time.
Those collecting welfare while hauling in cash dealing drugs or gang banging. Who are committing income tax fraud at the same time.
The "single moms" collecting single mom welfare while shacked up with a man. Or a woman. Whatever.
The welfare recipients who, without a job to go to each day, can't get off their ass to go looking for a job each day. Who can't get off their asses to make an effort to make themselves more employable. The basketball court is more important. Or the bingo hall. Or watching Oprah.
And we know kids learn by modelling their parents behavior. So while we're wailing about these poor parents, let's remember that they're not only modelling their children into accepting government welfare as a way of life, but modelling criminal behavior as acceptable behaviour to engage in.

Obviously, quite a few.

I knew it was about time to cut to the class envy, class warfare cries of the socialist. Right on schedule.

Says the mental midget who wants us to believe that the military has a "we aren't hiring" sign out, and refuses to hire anyone who comes from a ghetto. Says the mental midget who wants us to cry tears for druggies, gang bangers, the "too cool for school" losers who would rather live a life of crime and/or menial life in the socialist gulag rather than grab themselves by the scruff of the neck and make changes in their life.
Socialists: it's always somebody else's fault. They'll try and guilt trip the hell out of everybody else, because they won't take personal responsibility for their own lives.
Can you imagine taking these people back about 100 years or so? When immigrants from Europe responded to advertisements of "Free Land", put everything they had into passage to North America, got off the train somewhere in the middle of the prairie, walked to their staked out quarter section with their belongings on their back, and set about proving up on their homestead. Can you imagine this mewling, crying socialist class being one of the immigrants who homesteaded and succeeded in those conditions, building North America into the agricultural powerhouse it became? What would they have done in the time when there were NO government handouts and entitlement programs? Just got back on the train? Or would they have not gotten on the train in the first place?
