DC mom given $10,800 taxpayer-$ in aid spends $6,000 on MIAMI trip and vacation outfits

"Most people" aren't the problem. The problem is the people on welfare for generations.

Except they don't really exist. Usually, you have people on welfare for a few years... then they mainstream into the working poor.

Racism!

Do you think if it was a white nobody would’ve cared?

Pretty much. We don't hear these kinds of stories about the white trash in the trailer parks.

There are programs and movies that eviscerate people in trailer parks. The same in the inner city is not so vicious if it has any negative to it. There are no so-called Ghetto TV programs. The reality.
 
LOL....I guess she will be voting dem. ;)


DC mom given $10,800 taxpayer-funded lump sum as part of scheme to help poor families spends $6,000 on luxury trip to MIAMI and 15 vacation outfits for her three kids

  • Canethia Miller, 27, splurged through $10K intended for impoverished mothers
  • She shared how she put a majority of her program cash into a luxury Miami trip
  • Other young moms said they put the windfall into paying down their debts

A Washington DC mom has shared how she splurged most of a $10,000 taxpayer-funded lump sum intended for impoverished mothers on a luxury holiday to Miami.

Canethia Miller, 27, was accepted onto a DC government pilot last year as she and he three children were struggling to make ends meet. The Strong Futures program is one of many across the US - but the only one to offer the cash as a $10,800 lump sum, rather than in 12 smaller monthly installments.

Miller opted for the former - and confessed to the Washington Post that she splurged more than $6,000 of the windfall on a five night trip to Miami for herself and her three sons.

'I wanted to blow it. I wanted to have fun,' she said. The spending spree included 15 brand new outfits for her kids - one for each child for each day of the vacation - and a $180 haircut to make her not 'look like a working, stressed mom.'

Joined by her children's father, they splashed out on luxury amenities including steak dinners, new gadgets and toys for her kids, brand new outfits, and a boat tour past Miami's most expensive mansions.

It's tempting to think this woman is just delusional but she didn't arrive at this all on her own.

Her delusion was built by the same FUBAR system that's trying to build the delusion that men can be women.

So the money went right back into the economy... Or, you could say it went into family memories.
 
The U.S. consumer has driven the country’s economic engine over the past 12 months. But with record credit card debt, is the consumer running out of gas? Let's start with why the health of the consumer is very important. To begin with, the US is mostly a service-based economy largely reliant on domestic spending. Personal consumption accounts for 2/3 of US GDP. And as a result, the consumer is really the backbone of the economy, therefore, the saying, as the consumer goes, so goes the economy.

And the consumer story has been a positive one so far. Despite high borrowing costs and last year's spike in inflation, the consumer has kept spending at a robust pace, helping keep the economy out of recession. But can that positive momentum continue? According to the New York Fed, Americans have accumulated a record-breaking $1 trillion in credit card debt. We actually crossed that threshold late last year and have kept adding to it since, with credit card balances having grown by 64% since 2003.

Yes, they do exist. You just don't want to accept it.

One of the funniest sitcoms is My Name is Earl, about white trailer trash people. Only sane person on the show is a black dude.
