What other nation pays their citizens to do nothing and promote that same behavior by feeding the trolls?

How much money does the tax paying working class citizen piss away for people that refuse to contribute?

Where is the tipping point of this continued lunacy?

This is part of the problem, IMO. Just wait 10 more years when the southern border has been completely gaffed and this populous is also on the entitlement train. What's the strategy then?

We can't say we don't have a strategy. The issue is beyond serious and no one wants to tackle it. The person that addresses this head on in the next POTUS election gets my vote, regardless of party affiliation.

They're not being paid not to work - they're being paid to vote Democrat.

Roughly Zero.

Do you know the requirements for welfare / unemployment?

Fun fact - In Alabama, when you apply for food stamps, the packet that you are to complete includes a voter registration, this started in 2008. I'm not sure if other states requires this. Also in 2008 the application process eliminated verification of employment/income status. Also family assistance did away with the jobs program. That being said they have made it easir for people to qualify/lie without the hassle or responsibility to use the system for a temporary time, or motivation to better your situation.

Spike lee also likes to often capitalize every word he writes when posting something. I think it makes him feel like what he is saying is important.

Yea, well my wife started with DHR in these departments and I had to hear a lot more depressing shite than this everyday when I got home from work. Fortunately she has moved up the ranks and out of these departments to where the stories are not so bad now.

These folks have figured out how to keep their place in line to get their benefits.

You should see the black problem as you put it I have. 2 punks broke into my wife's car last night, dumbasses didn't even see the hi - def cameras hanging off my house capturing both of them. Hopefully they come back so I can catch them myself.

To keep them involved in the economy.

It's all about consumerism.

Actually that was LBJ. Your incredible streak of post failures has got to be a record.

Really? Why not let them die, we can always make more consumers. Or go with my other plan, process those poors into food for other poors.
