Question by Sizzlin Sammy: Is Arkansas the only state that ” pays off” its single people for having babies out of wedlock?
In Arkansas,these people suck off the State by getting rental assistance,food stamps and claiming kids at tax time that aren’t even theirs.I am so sick of this!!!They drive nice cars and have diamonds on their fingers at the same time are selling drugs and living the Life.The people that go into “rehab” also get food stamp benefits..And I guess that’s why our streets need repair so badly.Pardon me while I vent !

You’re seeing a few highly visible cases that, frankly, don’t represent the reality of the majority of people on public assistance. The rule-benders tend to get the most attention. Try working with them sometime to get a more realistic picture.
I fear that the programs in many states encourage this behavior.
The problem with welfare programs is that once people know they are there they tend to rely on them. Even FDR spoke of the “narcotic effects” of relief programs.
I know of no reliable way for the government to give help to those “truly down on their luck” while withholding it from people who “don’t really need it.”
Before the government was in charge, communities – churches, etc. – passed around the hat to help those in need. and since the people were personally known to each other, folks felt comfortable refusing to give money to people who were not trying their best to make it on their own.
What was known as “freeloading” and prohibited back then is now, I’m afraid, a significant portion of what we call an “entitlement” today.
You’re so right on this issue. My state of PA also fosters poor behavior. It seems that those of us who work an honest day often come up short. One thing we can say at least we have our pride, and the shirts on are back were provided by our hard work, not some Government program. Politicians are really to blame for this vicious cycle. See programs that were designed to help the poor come out of a temporary difficult situation are being abused. I work for SSA and I see this every day. Countless Americans are applying for disability for their children. Explaining that the children are disabled with ADD. Now, some cases maybe real, but many are not. This floods the system with countless examples of BS, and the people who need the help the most are now left waiting! Liberal minded folks feel that Government should be the Foster Daddy to society, but at whose expense? That’s right the working class! Now, many will convince us that it is Big and Little Business that take advantage of the American working Class and some of that might be also true, but Liberal Politician who know that if you keep low income, uneducated people dependent on Government that they can get elected to power! Do you remember the out rage when they reduced the Welfare Program? The media, and Former President Clinton were beside themselves, but documented reports have indicated that many people that came off of Government Welfare became working members of this Great Country. Now, the control their lives and are no longer enslaved. Do not subcribe to Craddle to the Grave theology! Keep spreading and as you so described “Venting” the truth!
