Thread Name: BS: Benefits/Welfare.
Subject: RE: BS: Benefits/Welfare.
Well, here in the US, we have "Welfare Reform" translated into meanin' that any woman whoes husband has deserted the family has to get up at 5:00 in the mornin', get on a bus 5 or 6 days aweek and go to a job that pays minimum wage ($5.25 an hour) and pay child care before rent, 'er food, 'er____________..... Anyone want to change places with this woman?

Ya' see, back during the day of Clinton, the right wing got this legislation passed that limits welfare benefits to 2 years and then you're done. Get a job. Pick Boss Hog's cotten if ya have to but get a dangted job and shut the heck up! We don't want to hear no crap out of you... Just get yer sorry ass out in the cotten fields...
