i wouldnt even take it if i could

i have a job and i can make do without leaning on the goverment for every penny

people use ebt cards to buy candy and frozen pizza garbage

welfare should let you buy bread and water
Now on a serious note, I have a special needs child that will need help to make it in life. I do feel it has a legit place in our society. But if you are able to work, get off your fat ass and do it!

There's probably a quick fix for many...implement something along the lines of the CCC (linky here for SDers with a broken Google [wikipedia.org]) for those that "can't" find a job. Got kids, great, you can work in the welfare daycare so others can work.

I think it used to work. I know people (close friends) that were poor growing up and are now really well off because they used the money to go to college.

What a narrow minded and shallow view. Have a little compassion for those less fortunate.

I mean they should at least be able to get a little bit of rice as well.

Take a look it's in a book, Clinton abolished welfare in '96.

These days you have to work for it.

I love welfare. I'm trying to get polygamy passed in my state so I can have more kids and more welfare. 1 child every 9 months doesn't cut it when trying to maintain the standard of living I have.

Hmm...why didn't you just bump your thread from last June? https://slickdeals.net/f/3039109-why-dont-we-abolish-welfare?v=1

Or think of another troll topic?
