Welfare recipients took out cash at bars, liquor stores, X-rated video shops, hookah parlors and even strip clubs — where they presumably spent their taxpayer money on lap dances rather than diapers, a Post investigation found.

Some allege this is because many of these places have ATMs that don’t charge any fees. Others dispute this.

This is what happens when the parasite class rules. Our society is dominated by degenerates. And, The Dear Leader and his socialist mob do not see anything wrong with it.

Payroll taxes should be deducted from all taxpayer funded benefits like welfare, food stamps, and unemployment. They will eventually benefit from SS and Medicare/Medicaid programs. Let them pay in. Just consider it a 6.2 percent across the board pay cut for free loaders.

How can this be posted under breaking news? It’s been this way for decades.

The last President that actually address the nation and talked about the problem was Reagan (remember “welfare queens”?) And despite his best efforts, he barely a dent in it.

I’ve posted several links here to the Heritage Organization that spell out the problem in fact based detail.

Try this one for example:

http://www.heritage.org/research/commentary/2012/10/welfare-is-at-an-all-time-high

Welfare is BIGGER than Social Security, bigger than Medicare, and bigger than the Military. And it doesn’t seem to even be on the national radar!

Appearently welfare recipients need auto parts cause
the parts store up town has a sign that says they
accept EBT cards. I suppose it could just be for
the candy and cokes they sell.....ya suppose?

“Some allege this is because many of these places have ATMs that don’t charge any fees.”

I’m surprised that Napoleon Bloomberg hasn’t jumped in here and made the ATM servicers pony up a “pole” tax.

Some states allow EBT withdrawal from an ATM.

Most states prohibit EBT money from being spent on anything other than food and drink and a new federal law prohibits ATM withdrawals for “sinful spending.”

I live in NYC (unfortunately, very unfortunately..help!) and know quite a few people who are getting by the skin of their teeth, and this year it’s going to get even tougher as they pay more taxes: One friend in particular who is a couple months behind in rent is facing eviction. He makes $50k a year (before taxes) and from what I learned he will be taking home $2000 less which is $2000 less he has for rent. So now he will go from being 2 months behind in rent to 3 or 4 months behind and will most certainly be evicted along with his family.

And for what? So bums can party it up in stripper bars.

It’s a vicious cycle. The outright theft of peoples earnings creates more dependents on the government which = more likely votes for Democrats out of fear of losing government assistance which is just the way the communist I mean Democrat party like it.

Once people learn government income is tax-free, they sign up.

Who needs the IRS?

It's all about fairness. It would be just another type of discrimination if the poor were not allowed to drink, gamble, watch porn. /s
