will get you hopping mad, as it should.
A woman who calls herself "Lucy" called in to News Radio KLBJ 590 AM/99.7
FM in Austin, Texas, to gloat about how she and other welfare recipients
just sit at home instead of work.
Below is a transcript I took from audio of the radio show.
Host: "Lucy, you're on KLBJ."
Lucy: "Hi, how are you. I just want to say while workers out there are
people like you that are preaching morality at people like me living on
welfare, can you really blame us? I mean, I get to sit home, I get to go
visit my friends all day, I even get to smoke weed. And I've seen people
that I know are illegal immigrants that don't contribute to society, we're
still gonna get paid. Our checks are coming in the mail every month and
it's gonna be on time, and we get subsidized housing. We even get presents
delivered for our kids at Christmas. Why should I work? So you know what?
Y'all get the benefit of ... erh ... you know, saying 'Oh, look at me. I'm
a better person,' but when y'all come back how y'all a better person cause
y'all go to work, we're the ones getting paid! So can you really blame us?"
Host: "Are you talking on an Obama phone as well?"
Lucy: "Yeah, I get an Obama phone."
Host: "How much ... have you added up the total of what you get each month,
Lucy?"
Lucy: "No, I haven't."
Host: "But what do you get? Just quickly go down the list of the things you
get from taxpayers."
Lucy: "Well, I only pay $50 a month for rent. It's supposed to be $600
something, so there's $550 right there. I get $425 a month for food stamps.
I get $150 month to pay my electric bill. I get a cell phone and then I get
$100 a month paid towards for water."
Host: "And that's from the City of Austin?"
Lucy: "Yes."
Host: "Do you have any kids, Lucy?"
Lucy: "I have three kids."
Host: "Does your husband work?"
Lucy: "He'll work every now and then. Part time. But he doesn't work very
much. He doesn't feel the need for it."
Host: "Does he get benefits as well?"
Lucy: "Yeah. Those are family benefits."
Host: "And Lucy is asking everyone listening right now why should she get
up and drive in the rain to work all day and pay taxes when she can get
those kinds of help from those who're going to work. Lucy, don't you feel
guilty about gaming the system and taking everybody else's money just
because you can lay down and watch TV on Riverside Drive every day of the
year and smoke wee."
Lucy: "But you know, if somebody offered you a million dollars, no strings
attached, would you walk away from it?"

At that point, I stopped listening and stopped transcribing.
Not only do I blame welfare sloths like Lucy, I blame every politician who
panders to the Lucys and who has helped in the creation of America's
obscene and utterly unsustainable Welfare State.
