That's right..its time to get rid of it. As our nations economy weakens and heads towards recession we can no longer afford to take care of people that are too lazy to work. Lets stop rewarding people who have 8 kids just to get a govt check.

V-6 is for real drivers. Go buy a Jetta if you want gas mileage and a chicks car. Buy a V-8 Mustang if you have no driving ability and need the extra horsepower to compensate and feel like you''''''''re fast.

Work for welfare programs would be worth looking into maybe. I don't know much about them and I'm sure there would be exceptions, but in principle I like the idea.

i don't even know if the ratio of legit use to **** with welfare is in its favor. i haven't seen everyone that gets a check or anything like that, but it seems like another thing that was good back in the day but now its just being taken advantage of....again.

a lot of programs were implemented in different times where they made sense, but instead of scrapping the plan and starting over as it becomes obsolete, it just gets lined with more red tape because of the nature of our government.

isn't there a point like maybe after the third or fourth child that people realize having kids gets expensive? i dunno, but holy **** its one thing to be wealthy and live well with kids but if you have a minimum wage job and like 6 kids with another one on the way, what the ****. maybe we need to be pushing for more birth control....but oh wait, skin to skin ftw right lol?

scrap welfare, WIC is much more effective. Your allowed only the essentials and ONLY the essentials. Baby formula, produce, milk, anything with iron in it etc. No junk cereals no ciggarettes, no alcohol just what you need to keep a family alive.
And yes, I have seen families that bust their asses to make ends meet use foodstamps as they should be used.
But not black people or mexicans, I hate them.
Im racist arent I?

I think there should be welfare, but it needs to be drastically overhauled (don't ask me how, I'm not an expert)
I know a guy who bought a brand new 2006 WRX STI (not sure on the year) while he was on welfare... talk about abusing the system

Well I think there should be no welfare for anyone. Here is my logic. The government exists only to protect our rights, NOT TO TAKE CARE OF US. I know my stance is radical, but I believe that if we truly had a government that only protected our inaleniable rights, there would be much more wealth and prosperity in our great nation. I believe that a free market coupled by a small, right protecting government is the best way to provide the greatest benefit for the most people.....much better than welfare

It actually looks like a credit card. It's was known as "EBT", or electronic benefit transfer. So basically the government hands out these cards to people and they use them as they please. When I first started working at my store 2 years ago, when I was a cashier, I saw these people come in all the time and you could buy pretty much anything with them that was edible basically. I can't say I remember whether it allowed alcohol/ciggs, but for some reason I think it did.
WIC seems to be far more realible simply because I've seen the little "form" or whatever that they bring with and it has a list of items they can buy. Easy as that.
This is what is used to look like but it has been updated recently...

where does it say that we don't have the right to have government aid during times of hardship?
