I know, it is still wrong to do that. I mean its people like that, that cause problems for those that actually need the temporary assistance.

Well they do it by getting the car in a friends name, or a relative.  That way they don't have to account for it.  Furthermore I firmly believe that a huge portion of these fancy vehicles in certain sections of town are paid for in cash through profits made from illegal ventures.  (hows that for PC?)

That pisses me off to no end right there. I know for a fact that if you try to apply for food stamps, you are turned down if your car is worth more than $1000. My aunt got turned down for them b/c she had to buy a new car. Even then it wasnt a brand new car, but her old one was no longer able to be repaired and she got a used car that had problems on its own, but it was a newer car and still had a higher value on it and she was turned down. She is working two jobs and going to college and has 2 kids to take care of. She has a deadbeat exhusband that was able to get out of paying any kind of alimony or child support due to mental illness causing him to be disable and unable to work. She does get a social security check for her kids in the amount of $75 a month, which doesnt even pay her electric bill. How fair is it that someone who is trying  but just needs a little extra help cant get any help simply b/c she needed a reliable car to get her too and from work. And for the record her car is a 96 cavalier that she bought in 99.

That's true...but I see a lot of this happen in way of expensive vehicles too.  I see welfare recipients driving $40,000 Lincoln SUVs and such.

Ok, am I the only one outraged?  Here is this man, in tax payer supported housing...basically he has someone else paying for his rent, yet he can keep exotic animals?  Don't these animals cost a lot of money to feed? I would think a tiger did.  If he can feed a tiger, he can bloody well pay for his rent and not live in public housing.

Man Kept Tiger In Public Housing

A Bengal tiger, being kept as a pet in a fifth-floor New York City apartment, has been removed, but the big cat did not go quietly -- the roars could be heard a block away. Dozens of police and animal control officers were called to tranquilize the 350- to 400-pound animal while hundreds of people waited on the street, Long Island's Newsday reports. Police arrested 36-year-old Antoine Yates in Philadelphia. Police also found a 3-foot caiman, a type of crocodile, in the apartment. Police were directed to the public housing apartment in Harlem after Yates was treated for several animal bites at a hospital.
