I don't believe if you are able to work that you should sit on welfare and at all possible families should help one another when on lean times but there are times when you cannot work. Six of my dad's siblins were born blind at a time when they didn't offer alot for blind children and the three remaining either alive or out of the nursing home draw a measley $500 a month and the government tries to cut them off when one of them passes well they did cut my aunts off when dad's brother died why is that fair. When a girl I know laid up and had 5 kids she knew she could not afford and she is given in excess of 600 a month in food stamps and her husband works and she somehow buys 2 cartons of cigs a week and my sister whose husband is in afghanistan has to scrape together money to buy a pack of mac and cheese and I give her money for her cigs. Or the guy I know who works under the table and hides it when reported draws a check because he had one seizure in his life and he works in construction making morein one week than I do in a month. Its so screwed up.
