I just found out that a couple that lives in my building is on welfare/food stamps. Well, at least, they were on welfare for 3 months, and now they have to work for 3 months to be eligible for welfare again, so now they both got part-time jobs, and they're going to quit after the 3 months. Anyways, I thought it was weird because the guy spends thousands and thousands of dollars spiffing up his car all the time. Also, the girl goes out and spends money on brand-new digital cameras and tattoos, and she's planning on getting a boob job soon. So it made me wonder, if you're on welfare, do they make any effort to find out what you spend your money on? I personally don't know how I feel about welfare, but it definitely pisses me off that they are on welfare. Both of them are very young and very capable of working, and I don't feel like they deserve to be on welfare. I feel like there are so many people who need it more than they do.
