There was a time were people were ashamed to be on any kind of government assistance for any length of time. Now a days they ware it as a badge of honor because they don't have to do anything for it. It's needed in certain circumstances not as a career move.

and the way the candidates campaign, once you give any form of assistance, you can't take it away.  Otherwise, you're now the candidate that hates poor people. 

So now its gotten so out of hand how do any of us expect a candidate to win an election who wants to take the poor out of slavery?"  Because, the older I get, the more I become convinced that's exactly what it is.  It's voluntary slavery.

Lt. Col. Allen West said it best:  should be a safety net, not a hammock.

Republicans always say this but in their minds NO ONE should need the safety net

hey, there are times when that safety net is the only thing that keeps a person from homelessness.  mom dies, they lose job, they blow out their knee stepping over a curb,  car blows engine in the same week, ya know?   emergency assistance is fine, as long as it's short and the person is working nonstop at the same time.  

if you're smoking pot at home on welfare, then you should be kneecapped.  But a little help is okay.
