We could save a lot of money and grief if instead of a million different welfare programs that pay for this or for that, we just had one. If you qualify you get a monthly "check" use this money for whatever you want no one else's business.
If you use it at strip clubs rather than to eat, good you'll die of starvation sooner and be off the dole.
I really don't see how this has not occurred to more people.
Poor people shouldn't be allowed to have a "good time" while they're on the dole. Or smile too much. They should be solemnly subservient to genuine taxpayers, and avert their eyes as a sign of respect.
They don't have to claim all of their tips.. Who can prove otherwise how much they took in? NO ONE. Most service industry employee's who work for tips know they don't have to claim all them.
All the waitresses I know have to claim at least 10% of their income in tips. This is really bad when some places like Denny's they don't tip much at all.
As far as I know, the only law is that companies must file a form which reports tips of at least 8% of revenue.
Technically speaking, 100% of tips SHOULD be reported as income for tax purposes, but you would have to prove that tips were earned and not paid, very hard to do.
Did you read the story? The big expose at the bottom shows the clubs and how many transactions they found at each. Most were in the neighborhood of three charges in a year for a total of a few hundred bucks
God damn executives will write off thousands of dollars at a strip club and charge it to the tax payers
Writing off expenses does not make the taxpayer pay a cent. That is a liberal myth.
When a business writes off an expense all that means is they do not have to pay taxes on that $$$ and that is limited to 50% of the expense now.
And that $$$ is the executives' $$ anyway, not the taxpayer's $$$.
How many transactions out of 200 million did they audit?
Ten thousand? 1 million?
"found dozens of clubs" in 1 small area of a large country.
So 4 dozen times 10,000 cities.
The big problem is the Democrats will not even address and end this.
So, businesses don't pay taxes on the money they spend in titty bars.
Just as bad as someone blowing their welfare money on lap dances

They should have to turn around and say thank you to the citizen behind them at the grocery store when they get free food.
Is there welfare fraud - yes. How much? Studies routinely show that it's less than 1%. The conservatives, who really don't understand the value of a $ would set up a large, expensive auti-fraud unit and root out those who are spending taxpayers' money in frivolous ways. In every jurisdiction where this has been done, the cost of the anti-fraud unit was more than the fraud it uncovered.
I'm more concerned about large-scale corporate welfare. Like the amount of subsidies paid out in food stamps to their employees for large corporate employers.
Corporate welfare. Another myth.
Allowing companies to keep the $$ they make is not welfare.

They need a way to put this kinda crap to stop.. I sure dont want my tax dollars so these low life people can go to strip clubs..

Corporate welfare is a fact. Many corporations receive grants, earned income credits, etc. Very few large corporations pay anywhere close to the 35% corporate taxes. Only small corporations get stuck with the 35% rate.
Large corporations owe a huge debt to the countries which supply the infrastructure and educated pool of employees, and a stable economy in which to function. There are many huge multi-nationals which pay no income tax - like Monsanto, which also sues farmers into bankruptcy if they dare harvest seeds from their crops and not re-purchase from Monsanto the follow year.
Conservatives are always big on chasing down welfare cheats, while looking the other way when Walmart's minimum wage employees get food stamps. My boss used to have a great expression for that. He called it "Picking up the peanuts while being trampled by the elephants".

This is why welfare needs to be given in the form of vouchers. Only minimal cash should be allowed.
I'm fine with states baring ATMs at those locations, and many have.
Although it seems you've completely overlooked the possibility that strippers, and liquor store employees are using the closest ATM to their job to withdraw cash.

Would be better if they could block those cards from being used at those locations.
Why punish the people who provide the ATM's and the people who work hard and stop
in for a drink and a little recreation at the nudie bar.
It bothers me when we start banning shit that affect people that don't break laws or game the system.
