Here’s my idea of welfare reform:
(document presented in language of applicant).....Public Assistance Implementation and Usage Contract.

This contract, entered into on (date) and expiring on (18 months from implementation date) by the (state agency) and applicant(s) listed herein (must submit names of applicant and children born to her via birth records),allows for the provision of food,housing allowance,child care and education for the purposes of job placement during the contract period,and is understood by all parties concerned that the provision of aforementioned assistance is on a one-time basis,not to be repeated or reinstated at any time for any reason between the applicant(s) and the agency named herein,and is for the aforementioned time period only,and can only be implemented following presentation of documents proving legal citizenship status and a drug screening process,both of which are to be conducted by the agency.

Once legal citizenship status and drug screen results are known by the agency and the applicant and found to be favorable,this contract can then be implemented.The following covenants hereby apply and are agreed upon by both the named agency herein and the applicant(s) seeking assistance (failure of any one of these covenants will be considered a contract breach on the part of the applicant,and will result in immediate termination of the contract;assistance will be terminated immediately and can never be reinstated at any time in the future for any reason:

Once applicant graduates from vocational training, a two-month job-placement period will commence,with child care provided by the agency; Upon applicant’s employment,there will be an additional 4 months of ongoing assistance to allow applicant enough time to establish themselves in their occupation and to make child-care arrangements for after the contract period.

Can anyone total up, line-by-line, the “assistance” that a typical dependent of the state with two children and a non-working baby daddy are “entitled” to?

Welfare
Medicade
Section 8 housing
WIC
Food stamps
Chilren care
Energy assistance

How much and what else?

[Chode]

what a friggin beast... did somebody release the Garthok???

[plain talk]

need to post the pic if you want a caption

[Huskrrrr]

There will be an army of this debris in the months ahead as all states start dealing with crushing deficits.

[VicVega]

Good advice.

[annieokie]

Its good, but I would also add at the beginning.

"Name the Father", failure to name the father will result in denial of any assistance.

[WayneM]

I belive there is also free or heavily subsidised cell phone service. Anyone else heard of this?

[Brent Calvert 03969-030]

free cell phones and service, $10 a month high-speed internet access, free meals at schools, free public transportation, free legal aid... the list is endless

[truth_seeker]

Add:

—free school breakfasts and lunches

—reduced cost/free “college”

—reduced cost/free bus tickets

Looks like she's been eating a few footballs.

[Huskrrrr]

In the words of Eddie Murphy:
“I can describe this woman in three words: the bitch ugly.”

[VicVega]

"Name the Father", failure to name the father will result in denial of any assistance."

I happened to catch a Maury Povich show once where this woman had three different guys on the show and she claimed one was the father.

After the paternity test proved negative for the three, she stated she may know who the guys is.

They would have to prove beyond a doubt who the baby daddy was, otherwise they are disqualified as you point out. LOL.

Let's just say that a half dozen Sumo wrestlers are starving to death because of her.

I think you could also add tax write offs in there. $3700 per dependent.

Add to that the EITC of $5036 for 2 kids and $5666 for 3.

$5k of free, tax free money.

My cousin and her husband make about $25k a year. Standard deductions for the 2 of them is $11,600. Personal exemptions for them and 2 kids are $3700 each or $14,800.

That means they pay no federal income tax.

They then get the EITC for 2 kids of $5036.

Their kids go to school. Public schools spend on average over $10k PER student PER year. That might be considered welfare.

How about school breakfast and lunch programs for the poor?

Free ER care. They can't refuse treatment and you can't squeeze blood out of a turnip.
