The dude that did this got arrested. He was buying all that and then selling it for $.50 on the dollar.
LINK Turns out buying lobster with foods stamps of fine. Selling them is illegal. Kinda odd, the dude was actually being punished for being mildly entrepreneurial and industrious. |

Look at the dates quoted in your little editorial... numbers that aren't from the Reagan Era might be more applicable to today's problems. Just a thought.

Let's look at some more recent ones shall we? These are the 2006 numbers posted by the AFDC. I couldn't find numbers from 2010-2011, but these are still a hell of a lot closer to today than numbers from the 80s. Welfare recipients by race: -White 38.8% (69.4% of total population) -Black 39.8% (12.7%) -Hispanic 15.7% (12.6%) -Asian 2.4% (3.8%) -other 3.3% Do the math. Blacks = ~13% of the population and almost 40% of the welfare recipients. A black individual is more than 5 times as likely to be on welfare than a white individual. A hispanic individual is twice as likely. This isn't some racist opinion or editorial. In fact, I think it is a terrible thing that we need to fix in our society, but it is a numerical FACT. It's also important to note that 24.7% of black Americans live below poverty line while only 8.6% of white Americans do. (National Poverty Center | University of Michigan) Where is the myth in all of this Chas? |

How about a closer look at some of these "Myths?"
Quote:
"31 percent have family responsibilities." WTF does that mean? Family responsibilities? I don't know about you, but to me working to pay for food is a "family responsibility". I'm guessing this was done by survey (since you posted no source). What were the other choices? If given a choice between "family responsibilities" and "I'm lazy" what other outcome would you expect? Family responsibilities. GMAFB. Quote:
-"Over one third lost their homes when the program ended." How many were in homes they should have never bought in the first place? How many would have lost them no matter what? Were these all forclosures? Define "lost". Again, nothing more than editorializing. The flip side is that even without welfare, 2/3 were able to keep their homes. How is this? If they were so desparately in need of money how were they able to do this? Hmmmmm.... -"if only 5 percent of these former GA recipients end up in prison or a state psychiatric institution all the taxpayer savings from ending General Assistance will be lost." This is the dumbest of all. Is it going on the assumption that they will end up in prison or in a psych ward because their welfare got cutoff? How many would have ended up there anyway? More pathetic editorializing without any possible facts to back it up. Your mythbusting is nothing more than a 20 year old editorial. |
