ReplyDeleteIt will change when the FOODSTAMPS law goes back into effect - where you can only receive food stamps for 3 months out of 3 years! Either that or the Crime Rate will jump through the roof!

ReplyDeleteThere ARE jobs for those who want to work. End of story. But then there are individuals who can't let a job interfere with basketball practice with other shiftless people.
ReplyDeleteAs long as their are government handouts and programs, the minority population will be content to feed off the government. All these programs should be short term and force people to be responsible for their survival. As a tax payer I am sick of working for ALL of these lady slobs.
ReplyDeletethe numbers in the story are lies, fake and should Never be repeated without saying this is deceptive. when someone can no longer get unemployment checks and they still don't have a job, they are NO LONGER counted in the unemployment totals. when someone gets a much lower wage part time job, this is not FULL employment and these numbers a screwed. Please never accept what the government force feeds the masses. The masses are, for the most part, uneducated...
