Welfare: The 'Shameless' Generation of Benefit Addicts
merrie
by merrie  8-27-2009    2
  Almost five million adults live in jobless homes The Crompton family, nicknamed 'Britain's Biggest Freeloaders' by their neighbours in Hull, live in a seven-bed house and get 33,000 a year. Harry Crompton, 51, has been out of work for 15 years and his wife Tracey, 41, has never had a job. Yet thanks to the generosity of the welfare state they receive 32,656 a year. The Cromptons were provided with two semis knocked together by the council at a cost of 20,000. The couple's only income from paid work is 20 a week from eldest son Michael, who has a factory job. They receive a further 628 a week in income support, disability allowance, carer's allowance, child tax credit, plus 120 a week rent on their seven-bedroom house. A working parent would have to earn 46,500 a year to match their income.

California's most conservative county sucks up the public assistance by the bucket

  Assemblywoman Noreen Evans, D-Santa Rosa, chairwoman of a legislative budget conference committee, ordered up a report last winter ranking which of the state's counties send the most tax money per capita to the Capitol, and which ones consume the most in health and other services. It showed that conservative counties - like Modoc, with 49.9 percent Republican registration, the state's highest - generally consumed the most, and liberal counties sent in the most. Marin County was No. 1 in contributions, at $4,793 per person, and San Francisco was No. 3 at $3,578. Modoc was No. 2 in consumption at $2,216 per person, and conservative Tulare was No. 1, with $2,223. "I don't think voters in the conservative counties understand the connection between the service they are receiving and the votes their representatives are making," Evans said…In Modoc, the way it works is that if the cuts being proposed go through, near-catastrophe will reign.

 This is the same guy who lets his illegal alien aunt live in squalor in a Boston slum. Obama's army of freeloaders are going to be mighty disappointed when they find out they were sold a bill of goods by the Great Gas Bag.

 1 percent has all the wealth, the top half of the population lives off of the bottom half of the population to the point of great harm to the bottom half giving NOTHING in return. They are carpetbaggers, scroungers, freeloaders, sponges, bloodsuckers and leeches.
