Exactly What’s Wrong With America

The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com.

Saw this last night on the news.

Taxpayers pay for cell phones for indigent people. But, the use of the program has gone up 5 fold since Obama took office. Here is the video. The money line is at 2:31.

It’s exactly what’s wrong with our governmental welfare system. I don’t think there is anyone that’s not for taking care of people that truly can’t help themselves, or run into a short term rough spot. But what is happening is people are working the system to get free money. You and I pay.

Enough. I’d rather end all welfare and see people scramble. Then we would find out who really needs it and who doesn’t. By the way, the lady that appears first has an SEIU shirt on. Don’t you need a job to be a member of a union?
