this is totally fucked up.

First of all, wikianswers says about unemployment: "Benefits are paid by the state from a special fund. The fund gets its money from employers, who pay a tax specifically for this program." This says to me that the government is acting like a bank. They are overseeing money that employers have paid in. It is not government money.

Nextly, okay so you test all those 'welfare mothers'. Some of them test dirty. Then what? Take away the benefits for the kids? They didn't test dirty. Take away the kids? And put them where? In the already over crowded foster care system? For what?

And welfare checks aren't the only checks that the government hands out. What about disability checks? How many mentally ill people out there could really test clean?

What about Social Security checks?

Where will it stop?
