    Wasnt Jesse the Body suppose to have corrected the Welfare or atleast cleaned up the Mn Welfare system? I read in the paper yesterday that a Hmong family in my county recieved $40,000 in Welfare over a 13 month period and investigators found they had 3 cars and put a down payment on $227,000 house. Now these folks do need some time behind bars for scamming our tax dollars but what or who the heck decides to cut these kinds of checks? What a joke!! It only hurts the real people that need the money like homeless vets!!! How many others are scamming and dont get caught??

    Glad they got caught. Makes you wonder where they learned that from and how many more are doing it.
    Could that be their version of America’s Free Enterprise System?

    I THINK THIS SAYS IT ALL

    ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS POEM

    I CROSS OCEAN, POOR AND BROKE, TAKE BUS, SEE EMPLOYMENT FOLK.

    NICE MAN TREAT ME GOOD IN THERE, SAY I NEED TO SEE WELFARE.

    WELFARE SAY, “YOU COME NO MORE, WE SEND CASH RIGHT TO YOUR DOOR.”

    WELFARE CHECKS, THEY MAKE YOU WEALTHY, MEDICAID, IT KEEP YOU HEALTHY!

    BY AND BY, I GOT PLENTY MONEY, THANKS TO YOU, AMERICAN DUMMY.

    WRITE TO FRIENDS IN MOTHERLAND, TELL THEM “COME FAST AS YOU CAN.”

    THEY COME IN TURBANS AND FORD TRUCKS, I BUY BIG HOUSE WITH WELFARE BUCKS!

    THEY COME HERE , WE LIVE TOGETHER, MORE WELFARE CHECKS, IT GET BETTER.

    FOURTEEN FAMILIES, THEY MOVING IN, BUT NEIGHBOR’S PATIENCE WEARING THIN.

    FINALLY, WHITE GUY MOVES AWAY,NOW I BUY HIS HOUSE AND THAN I SAY,

    “FIND MORE ALIENS FOR HOUSE TO RENT.” AND IN THE YARD I PUT A TENT.

    SEND FOR FAMILY, THEY JUST TRASH, BUT THEY, TOO, DRAW THE WELFARE CASH!

    EVERYTHING IS VERY GOOD, AND SOON WE OWN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

    WE HAVE A HOBBY IT’S CALLED BREEDING,WELFARE PAY FOR BABY FEEDING.

    KIDS NEED DENTIST, WIFE NEED PILLS? WE GET FREE, WE GOT NO BILLS!

    AMERICAN CRAZY! HE PAY ALL YEAR, TO KEEP WELFARE RUNNING HERE.

    WE THINK AMERICA DARN GOOD PLACE! TOO DARN GOOD FOR WHITE MAN RACE.

    IF THEY NO LIKE US, THEY CAN SCRAM, GOTS LOTS OF ROOM IN PAKISTAN.

    THE END

    AMEN BROTHER!

    Where do you think MN rates in socialist programs … ahead or behind mASSachusetts and california?

    I can’t believe how so many hard-working minnesotans (actually, fill in the blank for any state, or the entire US, for that matter) allow their politicians to siphon money out of their pockets and give it away to who CAN but WON’T work. I am all for helping those who CAN’T work (orphans, some widows, some handicaps), but for those who WON’T…SCREW THEM!! The classified ads are full of help wanted ads.

    (now stepping off the soap box)

    How did WI welfare reform work out with Tommy T. in charge over there? Or has that not necessarily worked very well?

    Love the poem, but realize there are other cultures that don’t have enough brains to do what your poem suggest some do. Probably said too much already.

    Government is made laws by the legislative branch (hopefully) unless the judicial branch declares it unconstitutional. The executive branch stamps the o.k. on the legislative branch(that would have been the governor). Anyway the way the legilative branch works it is impossible for an ex-wrestler to decipher it all. So my suggestion is to go to unicameral legislation like in Neb. where the people who offer the laws do not have any party designation and are not able to go into hidden conference commitees, and who are only able to vote up-front without hidden agendas. That is the way it is folks. However, would any of these legislators go for that. No! Because they are self serving and do not vote for what is right for the people. That is the way it is! Sorry, I should have said an “ex-pro wrestler”. He had a chanced to change things but he “puked”!
