I'm an American living in Mexico. I have no problem with Trump building a wall along the southern border (on his dime). I understand Walker was today proposing a wall along the northern border as well. That leaves the beaches on the east and west. That should do wonders for beachfront property values. I guess if you use drones to do the patrolling the costs should be manageable. 

I've met alot of very nice Mexicans who have lived in the US and since returned. By far when you ask them where they were in the US they say Chicago (I have no idea why) and CA. 

This whole thing just seems to me as a way to instill some sort of false patriotism.

Someone where I am domiciled did almost the same exact thing.

Well it was all fun and games until she got caught and charged with 5 felonies and her boyfriend got charged with 3 felonies.

So no more welfare and have fun getting a job.

You can rip off the welfare system but it's like selling drugs. Sure you can make a lot of money but your downside is 20 years in jail or getting murdered.

Nothing on the list is illegal. Well, maybe the living in a house you're renting to section 8, but nobody is gonna send an investigator to prove you live there.... even if they do, go stay at mom's for a day or two and prove them wrong.

Yep.  Where I own a rental property there is some public (tax payer - working people - paid for) housing.  The rule is that if the person does not stay there 1 in every 14 days they do not live there.  I found this out based on the crack dealer son being allowed to live in his mother's section 8 housing as long as he sleeps somewhere else every 13 days.  Welcome to the government.  The HATE people who work for a living and provide for themselves.

You not only have to prepare yourself but you have to get as many resources from your enemy to leave them in a weakened state. The reason I applaud these people is that they are taking as much from the NWO as possible and should be cause for decreased funding of the military, DHS, FEMA and NWO bankster operations.

The article is true as far as what is available to those who ask. The problem that I have is that it assumes there is a United States of America with a budget and so on. That is so old school. The NWO banksters run a global operation there is no United States military, budget or government. The NWO is here. People are too stupid to realize it and they write that silly myth stuff in their articles.

Yup.  Real level of defense-related spending is over $1T and that doesn't any of the black budget items off the official records which is conservatively estimated at $80B annually and likely closer to $90-100B where the DOD hides a lot of their 'fun projects' including energy & kinetic-based weapons, the next-generation bomber & successor to the B-2, next generation of pilotless aircraft, etc.

Can you make an honest buck in a dishonest society? Is there any honest work when the whole economy is propped up by dishonesty?

In a tyrannyical society the only option is to fight, passively resist (totally, not just with hollow words), or move away. If you are working in its agencies or encouraging others to work in its agencies you are part of the problem.

That's not to say that people on welfare are part of the solution, but you are encouraging the false dichotomy, just another form of two-sided politics. And I'm willing to bet your work is in no way honest.

Are you fucking kidding? The government has encouraged this. They push people into these lanes in lieu of pushing them to get off their asses and work.

Welfare and public assitance has almost no stigma attached to it anymore, and in many communities is is an expectation for just existing. Your head will explode talking to some of these people. Try it sometime.

In addition to “free” college tuition, avowed socialist and Democrat candidate Bernie Sanders said a key part of his platform is climate change.

“People want us to deal with climate change,” he said and claimed the issue is generating “enormous enthusiasm.”

I sent this to my wife earlier. My wife and I know at least two couples who follow over 75% of this "advice". Their parents want them to get married (both couples have two kids BTW) but they refuse because they get "free" stuff.

This is not a joke. We know their parents quite well (both families are middle class and Christian) and they are disgusted, but these 20 something couples think this is a great "program".

I unfortunately have family that is working this scam like pros.  And it really irritates the fuck out of me knowing that the student loans are just a back door can kick. 

I also have a neighbor working it - slightly different approach.  In her case she has a disabled kid who is like a welfare lotto ticket.  They haven't paid on thier mortgage for something like 7 or 8 years.  They turned thier house into an unregulated half-way house (more like a flop house).  White trash at it's finest.  Welfare squatters. 

Someday it's all coming unglued.  I might be stuck with family (those fuckers will work for it too) - but the neighbors better consider anything within 100 yards of my house potentially lethal.

The vast amount of people on government assistance actually do need it and it is not a cakewalk for most that I've witnessed.  They barely get by.  The worst part is the 18 trillion statement.  That debt was used to bail out the BANKS.  If you want to know who the real enemy is, it's the banksters, not the people on welfare.  If corporations paid their employees a decent wage instead of exploited them and kept the profits for themselves we'd have less people on welfare and a much healthier middle class.  This corporate inversion BS has to go... they need to pay their fair share of taxes and stop putting the burden on the middle class.  But with more than 90% of the wealth since 2008 going to the same banksters who caused the financial crisis, we have only rewarded and emboldened their bad behavior (thanks to QE 1,2,3).  This makes another financial collapse inevitable.

Do not forget who the REAL enemy is.  It's not the poor.  It's those who willingly destroy the middle class and openly bribe our government for their own personal gain.

And for that, look no further than the big banks and multi-national corporations.

The banksters are on welfare. The money changers get a cut of every dollar that goes from the govt. to poor people. There is the profit motive. Profit=income - expense. How much does it cost to transfer money from a govt acount to your own, using 1's and 0's. The cost is nil while the income from the federal govt. adds up from each outlay. Give me an account where the federal govt. moves money from the taxpayer, to my account, to the recipient, while paying me for handling the money. Hell, just give me 0.25% of the money and I will never have to work again as long as the taxpayer is willing to continue paying.

When it is all said and done, 54% or 598 billion of discretionary spending for 2015 will go to the military and their industrial complex of pathetic warmongering losers for christ.
Of that, 6 percent, or 65.3 billion goes to support the free shit army benenfits for losers who fought wars protecting banks retirement and medical.
Of that, 1 percent, or 13 billion went toward agriculture, which accounts for food benefits like food assistance, snap et cetera, which is mandated by the constitution.
Yearly war spending is a violation of the constitution, but we live in a "christian" country now, so the constitution is just a god damned piece of paper....

Your figures for EBT alone are way way understated.  And the bit about "mandated by the Constitution" is just amazingly uneducated.  Let me guess:  You're referencing the "General Welfare Clause?"  That has Nothing to do w/ welfare payments.  My Gawd, you vote don't you?

EBT isn't discretionary.
It is mandated.
It is constitutional.

The war on (insert noun) is not.
Any country the us has invaded, for whatever dubious reasons, is unconstitional by ARTICLE I, SECTION 8, CLAUSE 11.

The continued use of war by every congress since 1913 is a violation of
....

The Congress shall have Power To ...raise and support Armies, but no Appropriation of Money to that Use shall be for a longer Term than two Years....

One of the key reasons why a true, market clearing event cannot and will not, be allowed to take place.   The social ramifications - especially given the amount of people on assitance/transfer-payment programs, simply preclude it, save you would have societal meltdown in every major metropolitan area with a population over 200,000.

If you want to find out, just turn off the spigot for a month and you will see them gather in the streets, making it extremely easy to count them with your drone. The key to all of this is to make it all invisible. Make the taxes seem to come from heaven while manipulating us to demand increases on ALL American businesses (because its only fair) even though we pay their taxes in everything we buy. And bitch and moan about low minimum wages while the REAL minimum wages are set by these entitlements which compete directly with employers wages. How many will go to work if they can set at home and make more? And the victims of all of this? Why they are the poor minorities who have only fallen through the cracks due to white (business) racism and out of control capitalism that seeks to provide what we want at a price we will pay...even if it means they must ship our jobs to China. Whites are not so much victims as collateral damage from a progressive point of view.

Nothing is what it appears.

Deliberately so.

Chaos.

Blinding us from reality while we see things that directly contradict each other and those looking to sneak off with our last remaining freedoms and property whisper sweet nothings in our ear. Fear the illusion and ignore obvious threats. Their cloaking device is debt and it works because we want it to.

Almost everyone - even most people with fairly severe disabilities - can do something productive.

 

The company I worked at - the founder had a brother with some major disabilities - he worked for his brother doing purchasing of office supplies - it started as a made up job - but over time he did some good work and developed into a good employee. 

 

 I think as a result of this -  the company started to actively recruit and hire people with disabilities.

 

They show up to work every day just like everyone else (maybe even better) - they are just as productive and - in my experience anyway are not even close to being as big of a PITA as most able bodied people. 

 

My point is almost every one of these people on disability should have to do something to earn the money -  sure there would need to be a few exceptions - but mostly not -

 

The fakers would drop out of the program - and in my heart I think many of the people with real disabilities would actually have a better over all quality of life if they were given an opportunity to do something productive.

I base this on my actual experience - not some fucking theory.

 

Plus - if you ever catch a person cheating on any government program they are totally banned from ever getting another government check - no food stamps, no housing, no Obamacare  no Medicare, no social security NOTHING!

This of course goes for companies too.

 

Give the mother fuckers a month to voluntarily stop accepting the money they don't really deserve and NEED or risk losing every other government program for life and I don't give a fuck if you die of starvation - in fact I wish you would.

While I agree that there are abuses to America's social safety network, it would be useful to compare the money spent on "welfare moochers" with the money transfered to the top 1% through the fraudulent economy, the waste on defense spending and illegal wars, and the giant black financial hole of the NSA/DHS.

Stop the waste at the Pentagon, rewrite the tax code, and stop blowing up the rest of the world and America could fund health care, day care and college for everyone.  But I guess caring is "communist" while stealing and murdering are capitalist.

The government and the ruling elite have established these programs to keep people from becoming desperate and criminal.  It is a pay-off to the masses if you like.  Here's a free cell phone now leave us alone to manipulate Wall Street and rape Iraq.

I must say, the longer this goes on, the more it seems America needs and deserves Donald Trump.  I certainly hope he chooses Palin as his running mate.  That would be perfect.  Truly perfect.

Sell your house and move other assets out of the system. Then you go in with a chainsaw and destroy the rental and make it unlivable and unrepairable. (Think holes in the roof and walls)
(Make sure you go in under the guise of repairs)

Yes, you'll lose the property but you already lost it anyway.

What you gain is recompense and the satisfaction that you got the vermin out.... AND because it is beyond repair the city LOSES tax revenue (because the house will be condemed) and utility loses money for their ineptitude.

Once you go liquid, leave and never look back.

Once you are liquid and out of the system, no one can take anything off of you. So, they can sue you *IF* they can find you, and *IF* they can serve you papers and you owe them money, fuck 'em. Blood out of a stone. Fuck the GOV and FUCK the ILLEGAL WETBACKS!

Sorry to tell you this, but that story constitutes Welfare Fraud and will be prosecuted if discovered. 

1) SNAP and most other benefits require disclosure of ALL persons living in household.  Using his mom's address for mail doesn't change where he spends the night.

2) If She's getting benefits, any benefits, then a Child Support case is automatically opened against Him.  Since Child Support has to support an army of bureaucrats to collect it, it will be twice as much as he would otherwise pay to support the kids.  Furthermore, they have his address, his phone number, and his BANK ACCOUNT number, and won't hesitate to seize every dime he owns the day before Christmas.

3) Tax forms have addresses on them.  And the children's names.  She can't collect SNAP for both kids if He's claiming one on his taxes.

4) Section 8 has a five-year waiting list.  Most people die before they actually get housing through it.

5) All bets are off if either one of them takes their eyes off of either child for more than three continuous minutes until they are eight years old.  That's Child Neglect, and Child Protective Services will whisk both kids away to foster care, assess BOTH parents Child Support, and put their names on a register along with the child molesters.  Goodbye SNAP, TANF, and Section 8.  Goodbye tax deduction.  And goodbye job.

At least if they don't apply for government handouts, CPS won't come into their house for a checkup without a direct complaint from a teacher, a doctor, a nosy neighbor or one of the children lying because they didn't get something they wanted.  And if nobody has to be socked for Child Support, there won't be that ominous notation on the file: "Refused Parenting Class".

Hmm, I don't get the feeling you've ever worked for one of those government agencies. The workers hate their jobs. They have their own culture for getting the f*ck outta there by lunchtime any time they can. If fraud absolutely falls in their lap they will go after the work credit for its "discovery". A sorry-ass class of workers that in most ways is substantially worse than the abusers of the system (and in many cases don't give the first d*mn about the people that truly need help).
