Offer Upgrade  User ID: 46856858  United States10/29/2013 10:39 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Gov't assistance has become the new "second job", how people making $40, 000 / yr are supplementing thier income. really. I personally wish for doom because after coming back from my 2nd deployment I come back to a country living on government assistance. My first and honest thought? "Hell no." Quoting: Anonymous Coward 48822147 I'd rather see all these handout dogs die...but likely the government has its rag dolls right where it wants them.  Bro, Sorry you came back to this mess, we were shitty guardians of the homestead while you were gone. Like a frog in aslow boiling pot, it happened one baby step at a time, with the big agenda obscured behind one national trauma to the next like a well orchestrated play. I am embarrassed to have watched it slowly unfold, yet do nothing but shake my head and say .... To someone "gone" and suddenly plopped into the middle of it all the change must be shocking, to those of us who rode along its just a small change from yesterday, and yesterday is jus a little bit different from last friday... What a mess. Everyone I meet (these are middle class folks) are on at least one or two forms of govt assistance. God forbid dont say the W (welfare) word, "its not that at all..." (ya right), but I know people making $40, 000 / yr who have kids on the free lunch program and have ebt (food stamps) cards... to "supplement thier income" Govt assistance has become the new second job!  Please send my shill checks to: 2600 Scenic dr Austin TX 78703 If I have a bill for $4.27 and give the cashier $5.02, the stunned look on their faces as they give me back $.75 (three quarters) is akin to a magic trick. How did you do that? You've never been lost until you've been lost at Mach 3. "- i liked the song before boobs were added. but now. well, boobs. they make everything better dont they?

Yes, but like anything... no matter how crazy, once accepted becomes the norm. I am afraid, instead of resisting new taxation, we will just its ok, bc the govt will give it back in someform of subsidies. My problem is now big govt is my parent, deciding how much, where, when I spend my money. Control. See more baby steps.

This was not intended to be an instruction thread on HOW-TO get youself "free gov't handouts".... it is a social commentary (solicition peers opinions and other first hand accounts) on how step by step, we are moving towards total dependancy on goverment in our daily lives.

Throughout the years, now and then I have hired young women to help out with housework. Here is what I have notice, without fail. The young women charge about $5 over minimum wage, there are no deductions from that check, they pocket the whole thing. They are single, they have a kid or two. They are collecting welfare and child support. They have a live-in boyfriend with a good job, usually a union job, so they are not hurting. They are playing the system, their $100-$150 dollars a day is gravy, spending money, and I am paying double to support them. I have difficulty maintaining my serenity in this situation, so I have pretty much given up on hired help. This way, my serenity is much better, though my house is not nearly as clean. *********** WaterLily *********** " Do I dare Disturb the universe?" -- T. S. Elliot, Love Song of J.
