Let's play "what would I get if I had to live on welfare for a year?"?

http://www.dhss.delaware.gov/dss/tanfcalculator.ht...

Food stamp amount is on the right in yellowish orange text.

Cash amount is below in a blue box.

Are you going to get evicted?

How long til they repo your car?

Bad news though ... you have to WORK to get that money anyway... mandatory 30 hours a week in a job club or community services.

Nothing more demoralizing than putting in applications all day and no one calling day after day after day.

Update:

Yeah... people just loooove living on welfare. But I suppose its easy to believe that welfare is all about lazy black people mooching off the system because they have it so good. Fantasies are always easier to deal with.

Update 2:

@star light... and who do people on welfare know?

Update 3:

@leofa... put the beer down and just walk away dude.

    I couldn't agree with you more, but i live in Canada, and when i was on it and asked them if they could live on it, they couldn't answer.The Government's don't give a ****. People think your not looking for work. but for every 1 person they have thousands applying for the same crappy job.

    I've never gotten a job by putting in an application and walking away. It was aways from people I knew or got to know. People don't like to hire strangers.

    u don't have to do anything, but please read this; (u might learn smtg)

    I think that there are some job openings in china. why don't you go there and help them out.

    The money obama wants to distribute as charity is stolen and not his to give (read "Not Yours to Give" Dave Crockett)

    I thought the state of the union speech 1-24-12 was a magic show where the King stood up and talked out of his *** for about an hour. HOORAH!!!!!!!!!!!!

    But seriously, sir, I know that with you being on welfare you feel that you pay more than your fair share in taxes. after all you need something to do while you sit on your *** all day

    cell phone tax

    internet tax

    cable tv tax

    cigarette tax (we don't expect you to grow your own, waaaaaay too much work)

    liquor tax (we don't expect you to brew your own drinks, waaaaaaay too much work)

    check this out;

    Ron Paul is for the US Constitution and against the neo-conservative / socialist movements that are more commonly referred to as Republican and Democrat parties. Modern elections are all about buying votes with money stolen from the national treasury or campaign contributions given in return for special favors. Think I'm wrong? Why don't you read the US Constitution and an essay about Col Dave Crockett, "Not Yours to Give."?

    Both MSM parties (republicans and democrats) are heavily reliant on emotion. (the voters are a jury that has proven to be incapable of making logical decisions)

    I look up bills on govtrack.us. I can also see the bill sponsors and voting record of senate and congress.

    At least w/ SOPA King B Hussein Obama will not need to sit and wait w/ his internet kill switch. It will be done automatically. In addition please consider this;

    FEMA camps and NDAA are the real thing. (just like an Orwellian Utopia) You'll be gettin' the eff out of dodge to avoid some kind of urban uprising because of a disaster or emergency and about 30 or 40 miles out of town traffic will stop. Military stormtroopers will walk through stopped traffic and warn people to stay in their cars. When you get to the roadblock ahead you will be told to get out of your car (leave your keys and belongings in the car and DO NOT bring any weapons.) Then you will wait in a holding area for a bus and go to one of their internment facilities for in-processing. Hopefully you will not get to play any of their games (waterboarding, solitary confinement, etc) But don't worry, 6 fully staffed waterboards means you won't have a long line to wait in.

    NDAA (just signed into law by Barack Hussein Obama) will be used to authorize the whole thing, Did you read the book or see the movie "1984"? That's what it is. It allows any federal agency to declare an emergency and use the military forces to impose martial law. What they are doing in the mid east (door to door searches without warrants or any due process whatsoever) is only a rehearsal of what they have in store for us here. This is an article I wrote for another section.

    Do the police need a warrant to search me or my property? Under aspects of the US Constitution, all persons are protected from unwarranted searches and any other form of arbitrary harassment. Unfortunately modern courts have misinterpreted the intentions of the founding fathers who authored the US Constitution and Bill of Rights to give the police the power at their discretion to use "probable cause." Police should not be allowed to lawfully act on suspicions or whims, and any action against any person should be deemed unconstitutional. This also includes any electronic surveillance such as wiretaps, directional mics, etc. Of course under aspects of the "Patriot Act" they will claim that it is to protect us from terrorists. They also claim that states need to implement a REAL ID program so that sheeple can be digitally mapped for easy identification to once again... protect us from terrorists. Meanwhile, the southern border is wide open to basically let in whoever wants to come for whatever reason.

    The fact is this; the enforcement of drug and firearm prohibition has allowed the government to turn this country into a pig powered police state and everyday it is becoming more and more like the USSR. You might like all of this "protection" but personally I prefer to protect myself. If you are the kind of person that wants to give up your liberty for security then please go somewhere else like China or N Korea.

    No thanks. I'm not a brainwashed conservative who believes being on welfare is the easy life.
