Comments On Current Welfare State

I like it.  Just common sense.  Go to your church or atheist organization if you want more help than what the government can offer to keep you alive.  If your church or atheist organization turns you away, well maybe you should reevaluate your church or organization.  By the way, I don’t know of any atheist organization that provides help to the poor.

Life is hard.  Faith in God and trust that God is watching over you and to be a member of an organization that uplifts the poor while abasing the rich are great options.  The only other option is make the government do it.

By the way, without permitting people on welfare to purchase all the products at the grocery store, you wouldn’t get the corporate capitalist on board with the government plan.  Only the rice and bean producing corporations would be happy.  We are a welfare capitalist state not a socialist state and many suppose.

Best regards,

I F YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER,YOU'VE GOT AN  ELECTRICAL PROBLEM" Wow, this girl has a great  plan! Love the last thing she would do.... the best . This was written by a 21  yr. old female who gets it. It's her future she's worried about and this is how  she feels about the social welfare big government state that she's being forced  to live in! These solutions are just common sense in her opinion. This  'article' was in the Waco Tribune Herald, Waco , TX   PUT ME IN CHARGE . .  . 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. If you want to reproduce or use drugs,  alcohol, or smoke, 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. Now, if you have the guts - PASS IT ON...I WOULD REALLY  LIKE TO GET THIS BACK, IF EVERYONE SENDS IT, I WILL GET OVER 220 BACK!!! I WOULD  KNOW YOU SENT IT ON!!!
