This was in the Waco Tribune Herald, Waco , TX , Nov 18, 2011

PUT ME IN CHARGE . . .

Put me in charge of food stamps. I'd get rid of Lone Star cards; no cash for Ding Dongs or Ho Ho's, just money for 50-pound bags of rice and beans, blocks of cheese and all the powdered milk you can haul away. If you want steak and frozen pizza, then get a job.

Put me in charge of Medicaid. The first thing I'd do is to get women Norplant birth control implants or tubal ligations. Then, we'll test recipients for drugs, alcohol, and nicotine. If you want to reproduce or use drugs, alcohol, or smoke, then get a job.

Put me in charge of government housing. Ever live in a military barracks? You will maintain our property in a clean and good state of repair. Your home" will be subject to inspections anytime and possessions will be inventoried. If you want a plasma TV or Xbox 360, then get a job and your own place.

In addition, you will either present a check stub from a job each week or you will report to a "government" job. It may be cleaning the roadways of trash, painting and repairing public housing, whatever we find for you. We will sell your 22 inch rims and low profile tires and your blasting stereo and speakers and put that money toward the "common good.."

Before you write that I've violated someone's rights, realize that all of the above is voluntary. If you want our money, accept our rules. Before you say that this would be "demeaning" and ruin their "self esteem," consider that it wasn't that long ago that taking someone else's money for doing absolutely nothing was demeaning and lowered self esteem.

If we are expected to pay for other people's mistakes we should at least attempt to make them learn from their bad choices. The current system rewards them for continuing to make bad choices.

AND While you are on Gov't subsistence, you no longer can VOTE! Yes, that is correct. For you to vote would be a conflict of interest. You will voluntarily remove yourself from voting while you are receiving a Gov't welfare check. If you want to vote, then get a job.

I dont understand why our Govt. doesnt adopt this policy or one similar. There will always be some poverty since there will always be people who just want to scrape by.

And, you are more generous than i am, I say open up a soup kitchen in every town and let charitable organizations like the church and St. Vincent de paul run them if you cant afford to eat come on down and we will find you something to do for the day and feed you at the end of your shift.

Rob - your comment "I dont understand why our Govt. doesnt adopt this policy or one similar"



Because they do not want people to get off the system. A system that barely let you survive does not equate to more votes for democrats.

Obama phones, steak purchased with food stamps, public housing, welfare, free medical keep the lazy voting democrat.

P5388 - your comment "Yup, only 'cause we read it, agree with it, post it, but don't do anything else about it..."




Outstanding comment, and very true. If enough Americans get vocal, write congress, and start "doing something", then we can change some of this
