Everyone has heard stories about people buying Steak with Food Stamps then loading them into their Cadillacs, but has anyone ever shown proof of them?
But, but, the recession ended two years ago when Obama took over!
This is all part of Obama's plan. To put as many people as possible on the government handout to force it's eventual collapse. Cloward-piven at work. There's a reason he's called the food stamp president.

Cliffs: A majority of poor people aren't really poor in America.
This is what happens when all the money is sucked up by the "job creators" and is not trickling down.
Yah because our money supply is static and every dollar the rich get takes a dollar from the poor.

This is what happens when all the money the "job creators" sucked up is spent on needless government regulation compliance.

Cliffs: specific appliances have gotten way cheaper, basic requirements of living have gotten more expensive. Right wing bloggers are retarded.

You're forgetting there is a very large portion of the population that simply doesn't want to work and sure doesn't want to work full time. 20 hours is fine to them because they get all their basics provided for them - food, clothing, shelter, cell phone, car/transportation, etc.
And then throw in 2 years of unemployment...why work? Work is for suckers.
At this point time work is for suckers.
Our leaders do not care about Americans; they only care for themselves.
America has evolved into the ultimate capitalistic society where every man will do whatever is necessary, including cheating fellow human beings, to secure their standard of living.
So what can a poor person do to cheat/capitalize on the situation? Be unemployed!
See even the poor have equal rights to profit from corruption.
Being poor in the US is not always a choice, some people just do not know any better.
I know plenty of poor people. Some that live off as little as $300 a month. These people have homes that were left to them from parents or always been in the family. The homes are not expensive homes, probably worth $30-40K max. Out of that $300 they pay food, electric, clothing, heating, everything. That is $3600 a year income , that is what I consider poor. When you go to the store and the cost of a gallon of milk is too much so you never drink milk and you avoid common items like fruit because it cost too much , that is poor. These are people that live check to check, day to day doing odd jobs or picking up money wherever they can.
There is a flaw in the welfare system. To qualify they do not count the home you live in, the car you drive as assets. You can live in a million dollar home and drive a rolls royce and you will still qualify for welfare as long as it is your place of residence and your only car. They only count income, life insurance or savings accounts.
