they are certainly a back up plan to get more welfare and WIC benefits.
Good thing, eh? The economic world certainly won't take care of them.
Nothing to say about the rest of the post? OK.
You need to hang around more poor people. They have families. Why do you think you see these great big families living in one house or apartment? Granny can't pay for her own place and neither can the kids when they work full-time at McDonald's. What, did you think they were living like that because they liked each other's company?
Oh, and just try telling them that if they couldn't afford children then they shouldn't have had them and therefore deserve everything that happens to them and their children. That'll go over well.
A friend of mine had an ex-boyfriend who was marrying a woman - strange wedding. I met the man and his brother at the bachelor party - don't ask. The brother had a fiancee. A pregnant fiancee. She was currently living with her folks because they had had a fight where he slapped her. In the meantime, he hoped to win her back because he had a good job at the feed plant - making $8 an hour.
"That's good money, right?" I just stared at him.
These weren't your inner city stereotypical folk that you're thinking of
broketrash. The man's brother had gone to college and gotten a degree in marketing. I kinda doubt the brother will ever be able to show me his stock options and portfolio. Not all the people who wind up on social programs are girls who couldn't keep their legs together.
