The War on The War on Poverty part 2

Here is part two of the report on the War on Poverty, according to Paul Ryan.  Wait, wasn't he married to 7 of 9 on Voyager?  Wasn't there some kind of sex scandal...  I forgot how good looking his ex-wife is.  Wait, wrong Ryan.  Damn all these Republicans act and look the same.

Social Safety nets and the story

Shared Via The Richardson Family Charity (http://ricahrdsoncharity.webs.com/apps/blog/)

It has been asked recently, why do the Richardson's and their son don't go to the welfare office.  There are safety nets in place to ensure people like the Richardson family do not spend their lives living in a tent.  Their son, does not have any children, therefore he does not qualify for social aid.  Mr. and Ms. Richardson earn too much money. See the problem is that social welfare is based on your income, and how many children you have.  So when you have no children, or income beyond a specific point, you do not get aid.  You fall through the holes of social aid.  Sure Mr. Richardson has his social security; he has his retirements from his previous employment, but that income places him outside of the range for other social programs.
