I’d like to see Perry require all able body folks on assistance like Welfare work. IF they receive Welfare you have to work for the state you live in. They can do whatever needs to be done like: picking trash up off the highways; dig ditches; clean public toilets; clean roadside toilets etc. IF they receive welfare the state will make them productive citizens by working for their welfare. No More free lunches...as the scripture teaches if you don’t work you don’t eat.

Yeah, if we get them to do the most demeaning labor possible and maybe brandish them with like a letter A across their foreheads and give them jumpsuits. It would be a great way to dissuade those freeloaders.

I have been spouting this for years. Set up large daycare facilities and make welfare mothers take turns as sitters. One week you babysit other kids, other weeks, you paint grafitti off buildings, sweep streets, etc.. Whatever needs to be done.

Welfare are the “labor force” that could be used in lieu of illegals. How’s that for brain work?

I’d like to see mandatory drug testing for all welfare recips.

If Home Depot [and most other other places] require it to draw a paycheck, why not “gubmint paychecks”?

You could cut welfare spending by half, immediately.
