Obama Encouraging Americans to Get on Welfare
By Michael D. Tanner
Politico on July 18, 2012.
The Obama administration clearly doesnt believe that enough Americans are receiving welfare.
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius last week issued an order giving the Obama administration greater authority to waive work requirements included in the 1998 welfare reform law. This comes on top of a new ad campaign, using Spanish-language soap operas, to encourage more Latinos to sign up for food stamps.
The administration even gave a special award to an Agriculture Department worker who found ways to combat the mountain pride discouraging Appalachian residents from taking full advantage of food stamps and other welfare programs.
One message was loud and clear: More Americans should be getting welfare.
...
Unfortunately, on policy after policy from health care reform to the stimulus Obama has been content to simply throw money at a problem with little regard for results.
In this case, sadly, its the poor who suffer the most.
