What made me a confirmed opponent of welfare was a golfer who often joined our foursome. He had deformity in one leg. But he walked 18 holes with us carrying his golf bag, and was collecting permanent disability checks,
yes. he souuds like at least he had a physical injury of some kind
whether he really needed welfare or not, sounds questionable
yes
there are a lot of tough cases out there.
the feds should NOT be doling out welfare!!!
the states are that level of govt, if there is to be welfare
NOT the feds!
but.. well, there are many FAR WORSE welfare fraud cases too.
the swamp needs to be drained
and then.. and not many on FR will agree, I say let the states help the ones with real serious verified disabilities, fine and dandy with me .. but at least half or more of the recipents on disability welfare do appear capable of doing some productive work and many of them don’t look sick at all....
i know someone who hikes 5 miles thru Costco every weekend. but get disiability benefits on the basis that ‘cant walk’
go figure.. there’s tons of fakes on the dole
