White Trash Loto Winner!

White Trash Loto winner!! If you win the loto & you are on welfare, you should have to pay back what you got from the Tax Payers, since if you didn't have money to pay your bills, chances are that was a Tax $ that paid for the ticket...
If this doesn't piss you off, I don't know what will

She just got handed half a million dollars and she says she's "struggling?" WTF?? I hope she is being prosecuted. That's fraud.

And she doesn't have any income.

What a brain dead doofus.

She kinda has a stoner vibe, don't you think?

As a fellow Michigander, I am embarrassed that she resides here. What a dingbat.

Give her a break she has no income and 2 houses to keep up.

Lotto money or food stamps?

I would keep the lotto and stop collecting food assistance.

Here's a clue - take half your post-tax earnings and go start a flippin' business that generates revenue. Then you have money, cash reserves, an appreciating asset AND a job. Not to mention a purpose in life.

This country has lost its way so badly it ain't funny. People used to pine for enterpreneurship opportunities, now most can't fathom doing it. Of course the tax and regulatory structure disincentivizes it too, but that's another discussion.

Fraud. Yep. Means testing should be required for these programs.

Saw that video yesterday and told a co-worker "we're ****ed" as a country. The entitlement mindset has reached critical mass and may not be reversible.

I kind of don't have a problem with it. We need idiots like her to illustrate the moral bankruptcy of the welfare state for do-gooders who think such programs actually help people. If you're gonna make rules for collecting food stamps, then those rules have to apply to everyone, not just the ones you like. AFAIK, welfare and food stamp eligibility is based on income and number of dependents, not net worth or checking account balance. Getting a one-time cash windfall doesn't qualify as a paying job. Maybe they look at taxable income at the end of the year and will be able to drop her that way.

And she has the right to vote. This is the type of personality we have making decisions on who they think should lead our country. Agreed-were f'ed!

That's what I would do. But running a business takes more energy, integrity, and intelligence than she appears to have. If she takes this advice she'd just burn through the 1/2 mil faster and be broke again sooner. She needs to take this opportunity to get some training and get a job. Some people are cut out to be employers, and some people are cut out to just do what they're told.
