It's pretty sad that I can't afford a new truck but they can afford Escalades and Navigators on ugly *** expensive rims and tv's in the headrests.  It's very simple, if you need government assistance no problem but if you can afford the finer things in life like $50,000 vehicles you need to get your *** to work and quit being a bum.

Ross, I agree completely! I've been on jobs where I've had to take 5 drug tests in 6 weeks!! It is infuriating to say the least! On top of those drug tests, I was having to pay near $1300/wk to their BS! It makes me sick and I'd love for them to reform the welfare system but drug tests are just the beginning!...
They should axe the use of these cards at gas stations and on "cold drinks", candy bars, $.99 bags of chips, boiled crawfish, crab legs and a number of other "goods" that those who work only can afford once in a great while. They should set it up more like the WIC program, that is widely abused too! At least that way, they only get to get certain, neccessity items! They should also do like the unemployment division, where they have to go out and seek employment. Do most of these folks actually look for a job in a serious manner?...No but, at least it gets em off the dang couch!
