No, they should stop using one of the least likely groups to be on welfare as an example for being on welfare.

"you pay taxes"


Uh, Sarah, athletes receiving money to play college sports in Arkansas pay no state taxes, thanks to you. There is something either ironic or hypocritical about your statement.

how do you get on "assistance" if you are a young able-bodied male?


Those SSDI lawyers that produce those low budget commercials. That's how.

Lazy and unemployed people are not part of the MAGA or Republican party base. Those demographics are solidly part of the democrat party.

That's a cool ad, but she's not targeting "white males as welfare queens." He was just available for that role-- heck he could her nephew

"Brad" is the type of guy that needs mid-century factory jobs to be useful members of society. However, even if more industry existed it wouldn't be that type of work anymore.

There just isn't much room in the world for mediocrities to live comfortable lives like at the peak of the post-war "American Peace."

You can either add value above what can be automated - which that bar is getting increasingly higher - or you exist filling the gaps below the capabilities of automation getting paid like the gap filler you are (gig economy workers typify this reality).

That's why the deaths of despair are going nowhere. The natural market forces are telling you to off yourself if you aren't a value add.

Who are white guys on welfare that aren’t disabled?
I’m not disabled but can I sign up for welfare?

Im all for the policy, but she could have made the ad and not used ANYONE. She could have left that part out of the ad. It just another movie/ad that puts the white guy as the lame arse.

I don't know about yall but I'm tired of getting shite on. And yes I play video games. Got a 20 year IT career and don't get any welfare. So yeah, it pissed me off. Screw her.

people above a certain age, in certain parts of the country, in certain fields of work, etc. do not understand how dire this already is

White men in Arky ain't having it


I would bet good money that 90% of the while males in Arkansas understood the point of that ad just fine. And it looks like most of the people offended by this ad are liberals who probably don't live in Arkansas and wouldn't vote for Sanders even if they did.
