I am not certain if it can be fixed outside of taking a cold hard stand and refusing all recipients. But I know that would start another round of race riots in the cities.

Here in IL one of the people who was campaigning to be our state rep told us of documented cases of children living in IN and other places that were receiving IL benefits. Mainly because the mothers knew IL paid better than IN did. From what I gather, a family member or friend would allow them to use their address in Chicago to sign up. Then get the check to them when it came in the mail. He also said their were multiple cases of the state mailing the "kid's check" to addresses out of state. WTF? If they can't figure out that these kids don't even live here and are not this state's responsibility how can we ever get this under control?

EDIT- I know I know, Dakota thinks because some one was whipped and beaten as a slave 200 years ago I got to pay for every one of his decedents to sit around drink and F* what ever moves for the rest of their lives.

Unfortunately there's no practical way to prove whether someone is actively trying to get a job, or just milking the system by putting in the bare minimum effort.

I have changed my answer from no to sure. Go get your insurance producers license and we will talk some more. I have to wonder if they list us as a no or not.

Get a job.

If the jobs suck, then you oughta consider offing yourself.

You don't deserve your aspirations, you have to earn them. Life sucks like that, when it's fair.

cull the herd, I say.

I'll make a deal with you dipshits - for every welfare case you string up, I get to behead a trust fund baby. Before long we won't have any problems. Oh wait...

This thread can go in the shitpot anytime.

On the other hand the welfare rats have gone out of their way to suckle from the Federal Trough.

Trust Babies are taking from their family funds. welfare rats are stealing from everyone.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.
beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal
