with all the concern on here about trying to govern the activities of those on pa i think i came up with an idea. if you cant afford everything on your own heres what you should be allowed and not allowed to do.
no pets.
dont ever go out to eat to the movies or any other form of entertainment.
only the essential and most basic of foods. no internet of computers.
no cable or tv even.
if you have any of these and are on pa get rid of them.
you dont need new clothes there are places you can go that they will give you free second hand clothes you can even get underwear.
housing should consist of only enoug roomm for a bedroom for parents and one each for each gender of children you have and only one bathroom.
only buy the cheapest toiletries you can find and the cheapest houshold supplies available.
and although you now have absolutly nothing to do but go to work keep house and raise your kids dont have sex either that might inadvetantly lead to another child.
dont spend money on anything other than food essential bills and medical care.
you might lower your water bill by only flushing after a #2 and sharing bathwater.
you could keep your light bill down by only being awake during daylight hours.
only own one car per family unless you live in an area where there is access to public transportation then you dont need one.
or we could always make those who are on pa live in shelter situations so that every penny they make can be used to get off pa and we can monitor their every breath
does this sound llike a stupid invasion of privacy?
does anybody have the right to tell others to live like this?
what would happen to these people on pa if they were forces to live like this?
I bring this up because some people feel that they have the right to regulate the lives of those on pa. I understand that there are those that abuse the system and there always will be. but those who are responsible and use their pa the way it is intended greatly outnumber those who dont. you dont see those people because they vall attention to themselves.
SO STOP TREATING ALL OF US WHO NEED A LITTLE EXTRA HELP TO GET BY LIKE WELFARE BUMS! WITH THE CURRENT STATE OF THE ECONOMY YOU COULD EASILY BE ONE OF US ANYTIME!
lol. So I have to sacrifice because you do? Okay.
I sacrifice plenty by going to school and spending precious time away from my daughter. At this point, the measly dollars I would make every month working a crappy part time job is not worth the time spent away from school and my daughter. Sorry if that bothers you.
Quoting LoveMyBoyK:
If I am having to sacrifice to provide for your children, I expect you to do the same. Im sorry if you can't wrap your entitlement complex around that.
Quoting amgillis88:Because what people buy with their OWN money is no one's business but theirs.
I am appalled that people believe that what others buy WITH government funds is their business and what they buy with their OWN MONEY is *also* their business. I guess if you recieve PA then what you pay for with your own funds is also up for debate. Some of you should be ashamed. Thank God none of the warped opinions on here affect me in the least.
Quoting LoveMyBoyK:
Are there people who take it to the extteme in wanting to control the lives of those on PA? Sure. But OP, you are the opposite extreme. if someone on PA has cable and internet, why shouldn't we question that? If the go out to eat and a movie for an occasional treat, fine, but if do so all the time, why shouldnt we question it? Most of us make sacrifices - why shouldnt we question someone on PA who refuses to do so?
Like I've already said, the measly dollars I would make at a part time job is not worth the time spent away from my studies and from my daughter. *Especially* since I would still qualify for PA. Most people understand the value of getting an education now for a better payout in the end. It just doesn't make sense. I mean, the additional childcare alone would eat my entire check. So it's really not worth it. I'm sorry this bothers you so much.
Quoting Tanya93:Of course not. You expect other people to support you and pay for you. We know this. You don't worry about actually supporting yourself because others will do it.
Quoting amgillis88:Well good for them. I don't have to, so I don't.
Quoting Tanya93:and yet many, many women do it.....
Quoting moneysaver6:
Um...Someone only eating noodles and rice...especially store-bought processed noodles...will still have issues with obesity.
Noodles and rice only will not make one thin. I wasn't aware that anyone actually thought that.
Quoting KRIZZ25:
don't forget someone comes in and see what thy have to eat ..thy only allow noodles an rice ..that will help the obese issue to.
it was a joke..haha..
You aren't sorry.
You think you shouldn't have to work because you are poor and have a kid. No one did any of that to you. Many, many women actually work, care for a kid, and go to school. You are are above though. Selfish people.
But yeah, selfish people think they should get stuff they want because they are poor and can't afford to get it. And it is wrong to think those having kids they can't pay for shouldn't have the stuff those working and not using the tax payers buy.
Quoting amgillis88:lol. So I have to sacrifice because you do? Okay.
I sacrifice plenty by going to school and spending precious time away from my daughter. At this point, the measly dollars I would make every month working a crappy part time job is not worth the time spent away from school and my daughter. Sorry if that bothers you.

Sadly I think there is more fucktards that would suggest all that and more...
Everyone is saying that more people abuse than we think, when the truth is, the abuse is far less than most people assume.

Come on Tanya, can you read?
I've already said that I do not work because the little money I'd make at a part time job is NOT WORTH IT. The time away from studying and my daughter. The cost of childcare which would take my whole check. So its just not worth it. I don't get why you can't understand this? You are so bent out of shape about me not working that you can't grasp simple logic. It does not make LOGICAL SENSE for me to go out and get a part time job.
I am actually very sorry that you seem so bothered by this. The government doesn't seem to care that I don't have a job. I didn't lie to get assistance, I was trutful on my application. They don't have a problem with it, so what do you have your panties in a wad about it?
Get over it. Theres nothing you can do except be mad.
Quoting Tanya93:You aren't sorry.
