“Also seeing them buying gum, Getting $20 cash back to buy their cigs.”

Are you implying they’re getting cash back from a SNAP purchase? Doesn’t happen, no change.

If someone cannot support the children you have, it is unfair to let them have MORE the rest of us have to support.

Oh, you put it so well. This Catholic is just gobsmacked that such attitudes exist.

I’ve been saying this for 30 years now. Way back I was dating a sing mom who was on assistance. We split up but crossed paths and got back together for a bit. In the meantime she went out and git knocked up again and was single mom x2. I told her that state should put her on norplant (it was new at the time) as terms of her benefits. With my such attitude, you can guess we didn’t stay together long.

That’s how they keep them on the plantation.
