PUT AL IN CHARGE

        ----- PUT ME IN CHARGE

        This was in the Waco Tribune Herald in Waco, TX on 11/18/10

        Put me in charge of food stamps. No cash for Ding Dongs or Ho Ho's,

just money for 50-pound bags of rice and beans, blocks of cheese and all the powdered milk you can haul away. If you want steak and frozen pizza, then get a job. 

        Put me in charge of Medicaid. The first thing I'd do is to get women Norplant

birth control implants or tubal ligations. Then, we'll test recipients for drugs , alcohol, and nicotine and document all tattoos and piercings. If you want to

reproduce or use drugs, alcohol, smoke or get tats and piercings, then get a job. 

        Put me in charge of government housing. Ever live in a military

barracks? You will maintain our property in a clean and good state of repair. Your "home" will be subject to inspections anytime and possessions will be inventoried.. If you want a plasma TV or Xbox 360, then get a job and your own place. 

        In addition, you will either present a check stub from a job each week

or you will report to a "government" job. It may be cleaning the roadways of trash, painting and repairing public housing, whatever we find for you. We will sell your 22 inch rims and low profile tires and your blasting stereo and speakers and put that money toward the "common good." 

        Before you write that I've violated someone's rights, realize that all of

the above is voluntary. If you want our money, accept our rules. Before you

say that this would be "demeaning" and ruin their "self esteem," consider that

it wasn't that long ago that taking someone else's money for doing absolutely

nothing was demeaning and lowered self esteem. 

        If we are expected to pay for other people's mistakes we should at

least attempt to make them learn from their bad choices. The current system rewards them for continuing to make bad choices.

        AND while you are on Government subsistence, you no longer can

VOTE! Yes, that is correct. For you to vote would be a conflict of interest. You will voluntarily remove yourself from voting while you are receiving a Government welfare check. If you want to vote, then get a job. 

        Thank you.
