That is a terrible situation and I don't have any answers myself, if we turn off welfare altogether we will just end up with shanty towns like they have in Jamaica and South Africa, and our crime rates will soar through the roof.
Or those on welfare could just get a job...
You know one of my best friends and certainly an older brother to me, was shot in his face and died because a relocated gangster brought his gang shit up here??
Of course his biological brother (my best friend or used to be my best friend) without his older brother went off and committed an armed robbery (which is brother would have forbid) at the age of 17 (1997) and then he was out for a year (2000) before he got popped for screwing a 15-year-old and got 16 years in prison for that, and he is still in prison and my best friend is now an institutionalized individual and he will never be the same..
You see how the dominoes fall??
Assholes like Clinton brought the ghetto to my friends and one is dead while the other has been in prison pretty much since he was 17 and now he is 32...
If his older brother was never murdered than my boy wouldn't be in prison right now.
Saying they should get a job is simple but I think you know alot of those guys on welfare are not interested in upgrading their station in life, if someone in the projects gets even a minimum wage job they could lose a part of their welfare check or even the whole thing depending on what state they reside in, and these guys know that. They know the rules in and out and how to skate, I don't think everyone on welfare is bad either and I am sure some need it but it does seem like the system is abused alot, I am also sorry to hear about what happened to your friends, that is a very sad, terrible situation and I can understand why you would have resentment towards your new neighbors.
I don't believe everyone on welfare is bad - those who abuse the program are.
Some use the program appropriately - as a temporary means to get by, but many use it as a lifeline...
I think the idea is fine but its being abused in massive numbers...
There should be some sort of a time limit one can collect welfare or public aid.
Taxpayers shouldn't be required to provide for generations of people.
Not to mention the politicians who use the program as a bribe for votes... "vote for me because I will fight for your right to live for free and I will make evil rich people foot the bill."
It's not right..
What is wrong with supporting ones self or family with blood, sweat and tears?? If someone wants more then can learn a skill that is in high demand...
I don't want more, I'm satisfied with what I have...
