he article probably left out some seriously qualifying information, or was horribly wrong. Maybe they meant FITAP. Either way, it's wrong.

Have you been hit in the head or received a 'brain freeze' during the Alaska winter?


Primetime money in all his negativeness could only come up with an article that listed 19k recipient's of Welfare (TANF)for a specific year in Louisiana(2008 I believe he linked) .


It's apparent that it was 19,000 people(including the children ) not Households during that given year.

Only households of 3 or more with incomes of $30,000 /annually are qualified.

So 4 members or so per household & several thousand households per year you get your 15-20k recipient's of TANF(5 years for Lifetime benefits).


This article is talking about the whopping $192 per month per HOUSEHOLD paid out in TANF(and some elderly care subsidy they are lumping in with welfare to make it sound even more pernicious)

You can ignorantly keep saying the numbers are wrong despite the several links/articles or go find the correct numbers about TANF.
