Let’s see, guys on welfare but buys crack, should we subsidize his habit? No voters remorse here.

Do you have any fucking idea how hard it is to even qualify for welfare aid? In most cases, you have to have a temporary need that you can prove is temporary! If your “crisis” appears to be open ended, you won;t get help!

Been there after my workplace injury and dispute with my employer forced me onto welfare to put food on the table.

It was humiliating and soul killing beyond belief. You have to provide documentation of all your bills and what happened with your employment. You have to bring your bank statements. I was near tears by the time it was done. I had been a high paid aircraft mechanic working on multi-million dollar jetliners and now I was begging for food stamps.

Personally, I was ready to smoke a damn joint after I got through with the process.
