Have to agree with Pete on the government assistance. When they sign up for the programs, they agree to the stipulations. I see Bart's point, but I also see WIC cards used in PA by moms with their nails and hair done professionally. Point being that they use the cards for necessities and apparently they have other money for the frills. There are those who really need the help and those who could work, but choose not to. It seems like there are too many people getting money from assistance and SSI that never put into the program. I worked for the money I'm getting. What's really fair?
