LBJ’s “Great Society”.

Exactly.

Needs documentation, but I am quite sure that at least most of it is possible and practiced.

Header should be, Don’t marry. Live off the government instead.

Some people in religious but not civil marriages do live like this: some ultraorthodox Jews, some polygamous Muslims and Mormons.

When the council of elders can deliver tens of thousands of votes and swing a county or the state House, the authorities don’t look real closely at discriminatory practices by Section 8 landlords.

Is this why the DEEP STATE is so locked in and has Votes?
Universal suffrage is one of the planks of the communist manifesto.

Maybe around the same time, I think attributed to a fellow named Tytler, is the saw about half the people figuring out they can vote largess for themselves from the public treasury. Of course the professional politician will promise giveaways, regardless of the eventual consequences.

At least George Mason, and likely many other influential people around the time of constitution ratification, understood where universal suffrage leads. "We were warned."

Yeah, needs a comma fix.

“I helped my Uncle, Jack, off a horse. “

Would be different without the commas.

Can this be documented and proven? I’d like to see that happen on a couple living that way. Hello media?

That is sooo depressing.

No wonder there are so many slackers on this runaway gravy train.

Those who work and pay taxes are submitting to reverse slavery.

Section 8 payments vary by the locality. It’s higher in higher cost of living metro areas but it may not pay enough to live close to the big city.

Am I the only one to notice your headline contradicts your article?

I thought so too, but it can be read two ways:

I read "Do Not Marry and Live off the Government" as a single clause. Meaning an imperative not to get married, because that would mean you live off the government. I am a middle-aged married man and was wondering how my marriage enabled me to live off the government.

The author means it as two separate clauses, "Do not marry [so that you can] Live off the Government". It could have been put more clearly.

I’ve been married for 18 years. The game was going on then

Personal knowledge it's been going on since 1996. To add insult to injury they make money on the side with lawsuits for every minor thing that may happen to them.

LBJ’s “Great Society”

It remains to be seen if those “people” vote Democratic for the next 142 or so years.

My original tagline read.

“Welfare was never meant to be a career choice”

Mistake one... NEVER date a single mom. This is different from a widow. But how often is that?

I am happily unmarried and celibate after a long life of fallen state ways doing everything terrible and evil with women in all sorts of ways in my younger days. The biggest ‘sin’ I still pray about is being with single moms. Not for the mother’s sake but for her poor kids. I WAS a horrible person but gave that all up after coming face to face with Christ and some of my victims.

I live half time in Hawaii. Being a single mom is a career. One kid with one drop of “Native” blood gets you $65k in welfare. It is disgusting there. I know women with 3 or 4 bastard kids who never have to work for anything.

Now ask yourself, who voted in the government politicians who pull all these hand outs in place? Can you say white women?

“Those who work and pay taxes are submitting to reverse slavery.”

Bears repeating, over and over, with commas.
