They need to shut some of these welfare programs down and turn them into temp agencys. I'm all for government funds for those that need it, but too many people abuse it. There should be a time stamp on that shit (unless there already is one); get a job in 9 months or your get cut off. Maybe that would motivate some people to work and strive a little harder. I will say this, some people need it regardless of their ability to work, like those with no way of providing a guardian for their child while they work (for those who have kids).

I don't know anyone on a personal level that uses any form of welfare. My brother and his girl got approved for WIC once then had a child, but from what his girlfriend told me, they never went through with it. They didn't need it bad enough. I think WIC is a good program, it provides food for the children, and believe me, that enfamil is not cheap!

how about they take all the mofos on welfare and put them to work somewhere...picking fields, cotton, assemlbing video game controllers from their own house...something...make them earn their checks...a lot of bitches just popping babies out for the checks ya digs.

its a fucked up trip when you see how some of these welfare familys live...big screen tv, different babys daddy at the pad every day, drugs going in and out of the house, nice luxury car sitting in the driveway, lazy ass skank momma on her back.

first of all -- why the fuck would you say "picking fields, cotton" what made you say that -- its not as though its a common ass job -- makes your statement imply that black people are on welfare only or somethin

second -- your soundin way ignorant with this statement period -- sounds like you watch Maury too much -- like nefar said/ welfare isnt abused as much as your sayin

if ANY fools on this website are on welfare they need to get cut off. you shoudlnt be able to afford a computer or the internet for that matter. only exception would be if you post from somehwere besides your house (ie, a friends, the library, etc)

Why would you say that? There are oganizations that build and give away computers for free, also internet access isnt too expensive, netzero is real cheap.

check this out motherfucker, think before you speak on me, research. you got a free computer, cool. but if youre really in need you wont be spending shit on the internet, and you should be out there sellin that computer on the "block". or how about if tou have the free computer and free internet acces, maybe you should be on the net lookin for a JOB instead of spending your time on a hip hop message board. stop whining like a bitch, get a job. go to labor ready. DO SOMETHIN. ive lived in both bellingham and longview, yeah. your point? i stayed in a lil piece of shit house in bellingham till i was 5, and a rotten moldy ass trailer with no water or heat in longview for quite a while. the reason i say "bellingham to longview" is because thats from top to bottom of western washington, i represent the whole motherfucker. i know what its like to be strugglin and hustlin and robbin, andf i know what its like to be well off and sittin pretty, and ill let you know AINT NO GLAMOUR OR PRIDE IN BEIN POOR. i probably sold crack to your mom down in white center. and no, my moms aint rich, but she is well off. she DESERVES every fuckin penny shes got

"first of all -- why the fuck would you say "picking fields, cotton" what made you say that -- its not as though its a common ass job -- makes your statement imply that black people are on welfare only or somethin"
[/B][/QUOTE] what do you expect them to do?...go work as a ceo in some company?...you want them installing your cabel?...doing your taxes...i mentioned those jobs as an example because they dont require much skill, they require you to hustle your ass off...its a job they could do without much training or education...i didnt mean it as saying blacks are on welfare...ive seen more of my folks on welfare than blacks...lol...race aint got shit to do with my opinions.



"second -- your soundin way ignorant with this statement period -- sounds like you watch Maury too much -- like nefar said/ welfare isnt abused as much as your sayin"

[/B][/QUOTE] as for ppl abusing it less than one would imagine...i could care less if they abuse it or not...if you are a physically abled body person...get your ass to work...fuck a handout...its not like there isnt an option to work from your home if you got kids or other things keeping you from work...unless your crippled, braindead, and a fucking vegetable, i want you to earn your fucking money...call me ignorant for beliveing you should work for money istead of waiting for the mailman.

i agree, its definately not something im proud of. but not something i want to forget either. remembering it will keep me from going back. i was just using it as an example, that it does NOT matter where the hell im from or where i live, if its in the suburbs or the slums, dont judge a book by a stereotypical view of its cover. folks from ghettos want to stop gettin stereotyped, but want to stereotype folks from the suburbs? see

Unemployment benefits and wellfare should not be catagorized together. The need for Unemployment comes from crooked ass managers and other white collor ass holes siphoning off profits and costing honest workers their livelyhoods. So if they are going to cut off Unemployment like yall want maybe honest workers should just swoop over to they previous employers crib for a little payback/backpay.
