Put me in charge of food stamps. I'd get rid of Lone Star cards; no cash for Ding Dongs or Ho Ho's, just money for 50-pound bags of rice and beans, blocks of cheese and all the powdered milk you can haul away. If you want steak and frozen pizza, then get a job.
Put me in charge of Medicaid. The first thing I'd do is to get women Norplant birth control implants or tubal ligations. Then we'll test Recipients for drugs, alcohol, and nicotine and document all tattoos and Piercings. If you want to reproduce or use drugs, alcohol, smoke or get tats and piercings, then get a job.
Put me in charge of government housing. Ever live in a military barracks? You will maintain our property in a clean and good state of repair. Your "home" will be subject to inspections anytime and possessions will be inventoried. If you want a plasma TV or Xbox 360, then get a job and your own place.
In addition, you will either present a check stub from a job each week or you will report to a "government" job. It may be cleaning the roadways of trash, painting and repairing public housing, whatever we find for you. We will sell your 22 inch rims and low profile tires and your blasting stereo and speakers and put that money toward the “common good.”
Before you write that I've violated someone's rights, realize that all of the above is voluntary. If you want our money, accept our rules. Before you say that this would be "demeaning" and ruin their "self esteem," consider that it wasn't that long ago that taking someone else's money for doing absolutely nothing was demeaning and lowered self esteem.
If we are expected to pay for other people's mistakes, we should at least attempt to make them learn from their bad choices. The current system rewards them for continuing to make bad choices.
AND While you are on Gov’t subsistence, you no longer can VOTE! Yes that is correct. For you to vote would be a conflict of interest. You will voluntarily remove yourself from voting while you are receiving a Gov’t welfare check. If you want to vote, then get a job.

Well said,wish it was like that. Our system would not be drained. The people who need the system the most(short term) don't qualify.
You forgot reparations paid to me fulling for the events that happened now and 100 years ago of free-loading people....
I want my money back lol
P.S.
I only said that because the African American people are trying to pull the racism/slave card to get paid today for something that happened 100 years ago...
So if they get paid for all that, then I want my payments for you stealing my money for you having 8 kids and smoking drugs...
P.S.S
You specifically means and is intended to me "You" as a whole or group, not as a singled out person...
I wish!
Well said sir.
AMEN..Preach IT!
"Put me in charge of government housing. Ever live in a military barracks? You will maintain our property in a clean and good state of repair. Your "home" will be subject to inspections anytime and possessions will be inventoried."
Nope, that doesn't sound Communist AT ALL... What happened to the Party of Small Government?
"Put me in charge of Medicaid. The first thing I'd do is to get women Norplant birth control implants or tubal ligations."
Didn't Hannity and O'Reilly just have a fit over birth control being covered by insurance? You conservatives need to get your policies consistent. Are you for free birth control for the poor or not?
I wish you'd run for something - I'd sure vote for all that!
Fruitland Generic Citizen said...How many of these entitlements are you on? I agree with this 100%. But then I work and am really tired of people taking my money and getting all these entitlements with it. These people get food stamps and sell them for cash so they can get drugs. They get better medical than I can afford to purchase and I am the one working. What is it called when people take advantage of the system? Something has to be done about this problem IT VIOLATES MY RIGHTS. GET A JOB YOU WON'T BE THE PROBLEM.

I agree with you. Since when has the working class in this country been place in servitude to those who don't work?
Each and everybody out there knows someone who's gaming the system.
I absolutely sick and tires of it.
I love you, Joe Albero!! I could not have said it better!!
OMG ... I love this!!! I've often said, if you can afford tatoos and buy cigs ... you do not need a government check .. And yes, the government rewards them for bad behavior. It's funny how we can see it, but they cannot.
Nicely said!!! You have my vote....all 15 of them.
dogg
Does this mean the elderly and disabled on Social Security and Medicare wouldn't be able to vote? People on unemployment? What about people with government jobs (teachers, police, soldiers, etc.)? Or people whose companies do government contract work?
Well said! There comes a time in a lot of peoples lives when you possibly need help...but come on, don't expect to be taken care of for the rest of your life without giving something back!
Is this communism or socialism?
If I had read this a month ago, I probably would roll my eyes and think that you are taking things a bit far. However, in the last two weeks, I have seen people complain about having to may $2 for a prescription at the drug store as she paid with her welfare card (meanwhile, she had a much better purse than I did and was driving a better vehicle). And, when my husband and I splurged to get a few dozen crabs from FAT BOYS on Old Ocean City Rd., six people in front of me paid for their bushels with the Independence Card. Last time I checked, you cant buy prepare food with an IC. Shame on Fat Boys for accepting it. I am getting to the point where I agree with much of what you said!

Correct me if I am wrong but don't all that work pay into social security? Seems to me this is not an entitlement. We paid for this but again people that haven't paid into it get it so here they go working the system again. So again remove the freeloaders and let the rest of us enjoy.
Technically didn't we all (those who have work) pay into unemployment, welfare, medicaid, etc?
Is that an entitlement? Slippery slope.
joe
you hit another home run with this post!!! man its so right,these younger bums walking around with no clue of a job but they have several tats,piecings,smoking marlboro cigs and talking on a cell,there neccessities are provided for them so what cash they can pic up slinging dope, scraping, or stealing goes for there party goods. man what a nation of bums we have become.

Welfare, medicaid etc. are entitlements. People receiving them have never paid into them. They are stealing from tax payers to provide people the luxury of not having to work to get what they want. Unemployment, social security, medicaid are all paid into by individuals praying they won't steal it from them and give it to people that have never or will never put into it.
You give your tax money to these people if you want but I want to keep mine. They don't use it like it was set up for in the first place and if you think they do you don't live in the real world.
Another friggin 'expert' who knows not what he speaks.

How is it funded?
Payroll taxes paid by most employees, employers,
■■and people who are self-employed
Other sources, such as income taxes paid on Social ■■Security benefits, interest earned on the trust fund investments, and Part A premiums from people who aren’t eligible for premium-free Part A
