People who mooch are social parasites. I don't want to be one of those.
Having the bare minimum isn't acceptable for me. I don't feel like having to wait for " tha first or the 15th" to be able to get shit done. Poor people are a burden to everyone, I don't feel like being part of that burden.
Although I would LOVE to be able to do anything I want 365 days of the year and getting paid for it, the small amount of $ they get isn't enough for me to do it

The question assumes that people would only do it if it was great.
It's not great. It's good enough for a lot of people though.

Well duh.
The point is to show that the "living on welfare is so easy!" people never apply it to themselves because it actually isn't so easy. It sucks. The rant only makes sense coming from committed elitists like Paul who think poor people are inherently inferior and therefore will accept sucky conditions so they can be lazy.

One of you two are confused. Also flat screens are cheap now. I just recently bought my daughter one for school and it was under $300. Sell a couple of bags of dope and you can do that easy. I think you are assuming that the welfare is their only source of income.

I know 2 people who are currently on welfare. I wouldn't call them "lazy" but they've defiantly gave up already on attempting to better themselves and lack pretty much all initiative
One of them used to (i don't think still does) but used to sell his food stamp cards so he could buy other crap (mostly pills, he was/probably still is a major oxy addict). He has had more DUIs too than I thought was even allowed (3 that I know for sure). The other was just a college drop out that I guess didn't want to go back to his parent's house, or something. They might've changed, it's been over a year since I spoke with either of them
Oh yeah my cousins/aunt/uncle are also, I totally forgot about them. They're total junkies. An entire family of junkies and one of them is a hardcore evangelical, oddly enough, which got him fired once

I don't mind people who are working and still need welfare to help their families, although maybe they could have had a kid or two less, what bothers me is the people working under the table and getting welfare. I still think people who are getting welfare and not working should do some form of community service at least three days a week.

My brother told me for years he planned on getting off Social Security. Now that that talk has stopped.
I still cant imagine his life. I have no idea how he and his girlfriend live. I heard they stay up massively late watching movies and then sleep in massively late, spend time shopping for food and other things. I cant imagine it.
