Governor Paul LePage is responding to the the taxpayers of Maine, obviously weary of seeing those collecting social benefits buying and using items which most working middle class people view as luxury items.
So a new regulation is being proposed that no one with more than $5000 in assets will be eligible for SNAP benefits....If this goes into effect, score one for the good guys....
No More Jet Skis, Maine Tells Food Stamp Recipients
“Maine Gov. Paul LePage (R) is tired of able-bodied food stamp recipients zipping around on snowmobiles instead of looking for jobs.”
Maine Gov. Paul LePage (R) is an idiot, just because one owns a snowmobile doesn't mean he's not looking for a job.
Those with common sense are tired of moronic republicans and conservatives seeking to enact unwarranted punitive measures against Americans solely because they're low income or poor.
More ridiculous bullshit from the right.
Shit, you got me! LOL.More ridiculous bullshit from the right.
Yes...and you go to college.....
If someone wants to put back 50 bucks per month until they can buy a jet ski...Why should they be stopped? It is called freedom.
Illegal and Unconstitutional. Will be tossed out. TeaTards ain't learned their lesson yet I suppose...all these IGNORANT attacks on the poor but let's not get them some education or job training and get them OFF welfare.Governor Paul LePage is responding to the the taxpayers of Maine, obviously weary of seeing those collecting social benefits buying and using items which most working middle class people view as luxury items.

According to the left wing soothsayers, all three.What is to prevent a SNAPper from simply giving whatever he has to the SHACK UP broad he's living with, and vice versa?...They going to CHECK these people, or is that RACIST, BIASED, and possibly HOMOPHOBIC!
Umm, that welfare money comes from the pockets of taxpayers.What a bunch of shit....
The corporate asshole making 20,000,000/year can buy what he damn well pleases as he pays his workers shit. A lot of these poor people are the workers that are paid shit.
I hope no poor person votes republican.
BTW, YOU are a bunch of SHIT.....What a bunch of shit....

NO...Not a welfare recipient. If they can afford to buy such luxuries they do not need to be living off the taxpayers.If someone wants to put back 50 bucks per month until they can buy a jet ski...Why should they be stopped? It is called freedom.
What the hell are you yammering about?The evil Penguin, is an ice cold arrogant, pompous, spawn of Satan, jerk....
he wont be called a bigot or a racist, the state is 98% white, it's mostly WHITE families he's hurting....though i do suspect he's doing this to harm the Somali refugees put here and making certain no more come to join them....
He grew up in an orphanage, (no one wanted him...) so no one should get any more help than he got...he's truly mentally disturbed.
how bout i tell you what i think of him......
HUH?...Ok. That does not rise to the level of vapid.he's just gonna take the money and give it to the wealthiest, as he always does.

"Unconstitutional" based on what?
Ahh I get it. Enforcement of the law costs too much. So we allow those gaming the system to commit fraud with impunity. Great.Laws like this have already been struck down as unconstitutional in other states. The money belongs to the recipient and is controlled by the recipient, not by some government official.
(In fact, the money the Governor would have to spend on enforcing his law would be enough to buy several dozen used snowmobiles each year.)
Then feel free to write a check. Or pick a family and YOU buy them a snow machine or jet ski.his fat lazy ass couldn't fit on a snowmobile
and how in heavens name does he even know who is on a snow mobile? In addition, food stamps are mostly working families not young adults unemployed.
Non sequitur. This issue concerns the taxpaying working people of Maine.Six financial firms that received billions in bailout dollars still owned and operated fleets of jets to carry executives to company events and personal trips. Those assholes cost taxpayers $trillions.

This would mean that most people who own a car less than 10 years would not qualify. This is a horrible idea, but a very good example of how meddlesome government rules create unintended, negative consequences.
Care to miss the point by any more of a wider berth?Wonder how many republicans here realize that welfare doesn't automatically mean not working. It also means majority of time working but getting few hours or shit pay thanks to their free trade loving politicians sending jobs overseas and kissing the ass of corporations paying peanuts for pay.
