I hope Indiana is a bit more restrictive in what constitutes obtaining job training and what constitutes looking for work that Massachusetts is.

When I live in that hellhole, we ran into a woman who was originally from the Philippines. She married a guy who was in the Navy and moved to the United States. She divorced him after she received permanent residency status based on her marriage to the then serviceman. This woman had been in GED training for 16 years. She knew that if she did not fail the GED test, she would have to look for work.

What constitutes looking for work in Massachusetts? Filling out three job applications or mailing a resume to three companies each week.

The woman we know worked odd job for cash only and in the nice weather begged on the street. She would net between $2,000 and $5,000 a week by panhandling which she placed into savings accounts around Boston.

I don’t know; the welfare state has been in serious financial trouble since young whites learned the ropes from their urban counterparts. I see few young whites with children; many of those I do see are golden ticket welfare bastards. The country could afford to have unassimilated urban minorities on the dole; there was enough “makers” to offset the “takers”. Now much of the younger generation of whites have the same aspirations as the ghetto folk; “A job ain’t nuthin’ but WORK!”

With all those millions of jobs Obama and the Democrats brag about, there should be no problem in cutting SNAP 50% in next year’s budget. Everyone should be able to find work in this humming Obama economy.

Disability payments can put you OVER the food stamp threshold requirements even for 1 person.
