This came in today and it certainly makes sense and I suspect it would reduce the national debt. I’m all for it. Today…!
PUT ME IN CHARGE
This was in the Waco Tribune Herald in Waco , TX on 11/18/10
Put me in charge of food stamps. I'd get rid of Lone Star cards; no cash for Ding Dongs or Ho Ho's, just money for 50-pound bags of rice and beans, blocks of cheese and all the powdered milk you can haul away. If you want steak and frozen pizza, then get a job.
Put me in charge of Medicaid. The first thing I'd do is to get women Norplant birth control implants or tubal ligations. Then, we'll test recipients for drugs, alcohol, and nicotine and document all tattoos and piercings. If you want to reproduce or use drugs, alcohol, smoke or get tats and piercings, then get a job.
Put me in charge of government housing. Ever live in a military barracks? You will maintain our property in a clean and good state of repair. Your "home" will be subject to inspections anytime and possessions will be inventoried.. If you want a plasma TV or Xbox 360, then get a job and your own place.
In addition, you will either present a check stub from a job each week or you will report to a "government" job. It may be cleaning the roadways of trash, painting and repairing public housing, whatever we find for you. We will sell your 22 inch rims and low profile tires and your blasting stereo and speakers and put that money toward the "common good."
Before you write that I've violated someone's rights, realize that all of the above is voluntary. If you want our money, accept our rules. Before you say that this would be "demeaning" and ruin their "self esteem," consider that it wasn't that long ago that taking someone else's money for doing absolutely nothing was demeaning and lowered self esteem.
If we are expected to pay for other people's mistakes we should at least attempt to make them learn from their bad choices. The current system rewards them for continuing to make bad choices.

AND while you are on Government subsistence, you no longer can VOTE! Yes, that is correct. For you to vote would be a conflict of interest. You will voluntarily remove yourself from voting while you are receiving a Government welfare check. If you want to vote, then get a job.
There is NO LOGICAL arguement against this.

Lmao @ steak and pizza
not making this up: when I was in high school my best bud used to stock shelves at a Cee-Bee Ragland. I'd go pest him at the store right before his shift ended so we could catfishing.
Once there was this time a seen a woman take an entire shopping cart and fill it to brim with 'poke chops', t-bones, hot dogs, chicken quarters, etc.
To the absolute point spilling over.
Paid for it all with foob stamps. Then whipped out a roll of $20 bills from her 46 triple EEE stinky bra to pay for a couple cartons of KOOLS.
Crazy. My bud said she used to regularly clean out the meat dept.

Why can't ordinary folks like us can see the problem and solution, but the idiots we elect are blind? 
Politics
The System
Liberals
Us vs There
Elitism
