Every day I think about that, especially the elderly, who were born into something very different from what we have now. And a lot of the cuts are happening because too many are receiving welfare who should have refrained from childbearing, gotten job training or degrees, and so on. It has become very much a lifestyle.

To the poster about socialism - in fact, the same problems have made the capitalist system equally a complete failure.

Im sure Rolanda is a nice enough young woman, but this mentality to look to the state for everything has got to change or we are all going to drown from it.

Amen!

How sad how this lady is looking for help and what she gets is everything but that...nobody knows her story but are quick to judge. Yes, I am employeed NOT on public assistance!!! But 20 years ago was abandoned by my husband with 2 year old twins and another one on the way, and I had to depend on welfare for a while.

Rolanda, everything has changed so much so I really dont know where to send you for help but I wish you the best and hope you get on your feet soon. God bless you!!

Each additional child she has is worth X amount of dollars a month.

ANd perhaps even another bedroom?
