welfare

Words escape me. What is there to say? The photos and videos are horrendous, and it's infuriating. Something NEEDS to Change NOW!

It is beyond time for both sides to come together in the House and in the Senate, as well as in the White House, to come to a compromise.

We have all heard about welfare reform over and over again.  Some states have gone as far as requiring drug tests for welfare recipients.  Now it looks as if several states are cracking down on what people purchase with their welfare benefits.  Limits may be set on what people can use their welfare and food stamps on.

In a recent study it was shown that welfare benefits actually pay more than minimum wage in 35 states. And in some of those states, it pays a lot more.

Okay so over the weekend I was at one of the fine grocery stores in Amarillo and as I was checking out I saw a sight that dropped my jaw.  What I saw was, in my head, food stamp abuse at it's finest and it just got me thinking.  Do too many people abuse the welfare system?

Hey whats up everybody this is Tommy I had a listener message me on a story she read earlier today about Drug testing welfare recipients. Here's the message she sent me along with a photo.

This is a hugely controversial subject and this article is written to get feedback from you, the American Citizen. Take a look at the information and questions presented below and take the polls to voice what you think is the proper direction for the US Welfare system.

Investigators and authorities have learned that a Seattle couple lived in a million-dollar home and traveled the world, all while collecting more than $135,000 in welfare benefits.

It looks like Florida is one of the first states to start drug testing welfare recipients. Governor Rick Scott had made this a priority of his office. Now, anyone applying for government assistance will be required to pass a drug test which they purchase themselves. They will be reimbursed upon passing the test and then be qualified to receive assistance.

All I can say is it's about dang time this happened!  Florida governor Rick Scott has signed off on a welfare drug-screening program.  Meaning to get welfare, you have to pass a urine test.
