Are Food Stamps Becoming a De Facto Guaranteed Minimum Income?

and yet, every position you take is designed to emasculate men and promote the cause of female supremacy and dominion...

nosh*t? prove it.

People (men) that have no intention to be responsible for their actions ...

do you not trust god at all? do you really think if i knock some fortunate young woman up and leave that my child will not be taken good care of if it is god's will that he or she be well taken care of?

are you really that arrogant?

Personally, I have always thought sterilization should be a precondition to receive public assistance - that includes the father of the issue, no matter how much he makes.

also, i think that the state should aggressively pursue non custodial parents who have extreme child support arrears on their children who require the food stamp benefit. if you're not paying a penny for the well being of your kids and the state and a single parent have to struggle to provide food for them - your *ss should be in a strict work release program.

Irresponsible parents should be punished. The problem is, you put them in jail, and then they're not earning any money to pay their child support anyway (which they weren't paying before, either, but now taxpayers are paying the additional bill to incarcerate them.) So this isn't working very well.

People who don't pay their child support are a huge problem in Texas. Here's an example:

There is a woman I have known since we were teenagers. After high school, she married and had 2 children, and shortly afterwards, the guy bounced. They divorced, she was awarded something like $400 a month in child support, because he had a very well paying job in the oil fields. As far as I know, he never ever paid anything. And the state was either unable or unwilling to track him down.

Fast forward about 15 years. The sum is now over $70,000 in unpaid child support. Although she always held a job, she was on food stamps and other assistance for several years throughout this period.

By chance, she finally learned where he was, in another Texas town, with a wife and child who he was apparently supporting. She told the state about it, and she gave them his address, but nothing was done to collect anything from him.

So she then contacted a local TV station and their investigator went all the way to the state Attorney General and got in his face about the huge problem of deadbeat parents in Texas, using her story as one example.

After the story aired, the state actually went and arrested the guy and put him in jail. Of course this meant he wasn't working, and she didn't get any money.

Can anyone guess what happened next ?

nothing, is what i would assume.

i don't think strictly putting parents in jail is the way to go, work release or some sort of work program should be mandatory. and the money should go to pay back the state for foodstamps first and foremost.

my friend is in a similar position. except her ex husband had four children with her, and three more with two other women. his kids are in virginia and he has ran off to iowa. my friend has offered to drop all the child support and help set him and his new girlfriend up in an apartment here, so he can at least be a part of his kid's lives - they miss him desperately, especially the older ones. but he's too scared of being held accountable. deat beat's a deadbeat..

The kids are now sex slaves of the Saudi royal family.

why don't you just admit you hate men.

It seems pretty abundantly clear she hates all men to me also.

This is where the story gets really good.

After the state put him in jail, there are series of appearances in court, and my friend had to attend. He starts giving her meaningful glances, and eventually the phone call comes from jail. (And she accepts the charge )

And he gives her the whole rigamarole about how he's sorry, and he really cares about those boys, and he's getting his act together now and if he can just get out of jail he'll go right back to work and start sending those monthly checks and everything is going to be great.

So.... she has a powwow with the attorneys and they eventually agree to let him out.

And he was never seen nor heard from again.

7 kids ??? and you don't think the best first step is stopping breeding machines from breeding.

you're way off on most assumptions that appear abundantly clear to you. what in the world have a ever said to give the impression i hate men?

Alonzo said it best. "Give him credit. He worked the system, deserves his freedom."

yeah, and he's got a twin brother who has four more by three different women.

and before you start: they're all white.

you constantly bring up putting women on birth control, and i don't agree with that.

the mothers of the children i'm referring to are not 'breeding machines'. they all work, full time. and like i said, my friend who has four children with him, had three of those children while they were married.

The woman whose story I mentioned is white (she actually immigrated from Great Britain as a child) and her husband is white also. And they have 2 white children.

I would imagine that she really doesn't hate men. She was probably refering to the dorks, and morons that believe their masculinity is gauged by the amount of women they can impregnate without a care or thought regarding the repercussions of their selfish actions.
