The Breadwinner

“My Momma told me that I am the breadwinner for the family.”

I was speaking to an emergency room physician this morning. He told me that a woman in her 20’s came to the ER with her 8th pregnancy. She stated “my momma told me that I am the breadwinner for the family.” He asked her to explain. She said that she can make babies and babies get money for the family.

The scam goes like this: The grandma calls the Department of Child and Family Services and states that the unemployed daughter is not capable of caring for these children. DCFS agrees and states that the child or children will need to go to foster care.

The grandma then volunteers to be the foster parent, and thus receives a check for $1500 per child per month in Illinois .

Total yearly income: $144,000 tax-free, not to mention free healthcare (Medicaid) plus a monthly “Linx” card entitling her to free groceries, etc, and a voucher for 250 free cell phone minutes per month.

This does not even include WIC and other welfare programs.

Indeed, grandma was correct in that her fertile daughter is the “breadwinner” in the family.

I hope you share this story with your contacts so they know how the ruling class spends our tax dollars.

Back when, there would have been some serious tube-tying going on around number three or so.

The welfare/warfare state rolls on.

I won't try to deny this story but I will say that this is a very small minority of welfare cases, many of whom consist of people who are severely disabled, mothers who are desperately trying to raise the children they already have, and a great many other people deserving our help.

You are correct.

Having housed both types, I now try to get elderly, and or, disabled people who need decent homes for themselves and whatever remains of their family.

Several of our tenants have been with us for over twenty years, and they would shoot you dead if you told them that they had to move.

It's a win/win situation.
