Well Quick it's all well and good.
Those programs are offered to them, free of charge.
Read about the program in the OP link.
In your perfect world they would sop it up and become educated and productive.
Back here in the real world..they are passing up the opportunities and now crying when the spigot of welfare funds is being shut off.
You can lead a horse to water but you cannot make him drink.
I am not naive to believe in a perfect world. I just want to find a way to get some of these leaches off the public dole.
If you read my previous post you will see that I worked in these roach infested areas and know full well what is going on.
What is your solution? We can't just keep going the way we are. If 10% secede that is better than 0%.
A lot of programs are offered (I posted a web site with many fed training programs) but, none are mandatory. Most of the programs out there are not in the community where these people live.
Something has to be done. If you don't like my idea fine. Submit your own or offer improvements to mine.
Don't just post everything is hopeless and complain.

Take the kids and put them in foster care. Tough love.
Cut the welfare and tell the mom..get your act together so you can have your kids back and raise them properly. If the mother really cares then she'll do whatever it takes, meanwhile the kids are being taken care of and have food, shelter and clothes.
Drastic yes..but what we have today is not working.
Notice I did say foster care..I do not advocate permanent removal; just removal long enough so the mother can get on her feet.

Just as some believed TSA wouldn't stop at airports, neither would removing children from homes whenever certain politicians deemed it "tough love".
Take the kids because the parents are idiots would turn into a much bigger deal & those who are FOR something like the removal of the children, should then be prepared that it could happen to them.
What if the government decided children had to removed because the parent smoke pot, or cigarettes?
Do you really believe it would be THAT far removed?

This is about welfare moms getting payments for over 5 years. See post #1
And my suggestion doesn't matter. They are getting cut off and will keep their kids so they'll be worse off.
yes, this country has its priorities wrong, where they think its ok to perpetuate poverty, to encourage people not to work, to allow for limited consequences for poor choices.. you know, everything you are supporting..
They can be controlled more easily this way by the left.

Well, this is true & very sad that the poor kids had the misfortune to be born to an idiot.
