I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt for now, from what I gathered they are pissed at a particular person who admitted to abusing the system. Bad apple situation yo.
I have been a sahm on food stamps. Was I an abuser? Should I go cry now?
The person snowboard had a problem with was crazy I must say. She said all working moms neglected their children and we should all get welfare to hang out with our kids all day. And oh, that we were jealous. She was nuts.
There were a few intense welfare threads on there for a few days after that.
1. Our government holding it's citizens hostage because of political power plays
2. Fruit based desserts
3. Sarah Palin still being a viable politician
4. Ted Cruz's American citizenship (or lack thereof)
5. Rape culture still existing
Things that are not scandelous:
1. Swearing

So, one person was an asshole and now you are generalizing welfare and SAHMs.
This is a cardinal sin on Parenting.

who cares? go lurk over there, its not as fun as it is on this side of the fence!
I'm talking about your view on goddamn governmental assistance and what you consider to be abuse of said system.
I don't give a fuck about what those chickenheads have to say about anything.
I do not lurk.
Answer the question, please.
Hey I need a new iPhone, ipad, new car, nails did, hair did, buttttttttttttt I don't have $ for food and its Obama's and everyone elses job to take care of my family and basic needs.. also, I'm TTC.
I had a small vent about a person at the grocery store and being able to afford 30$ worth of cigarettes and then some crazy girl told me I was a bad mom because I work and left my kid. And I was jealous because she had figured out how to abuse the system to stay at home. Anyways. If you need the help you need it. If you are an abuser you take offence to my stance.

THAT is what I consider abuse.
I have never seen this happen anywhere except from anecdotal stories on the internet.

Nevermind. Not generalizing. Not in the mood for fights just my opinion we all know there are assholes in this world that take advantage.. THOSE people not everyone.

But when you use that generalization as a statement against the entirety of welfare, you're making a huge mistake.
There are douchebags everywhere and in every walk of life. The number of people who legitimately abuse the various welfare programs are incredibly small compared to the number of people on the programs.
Saying what you said is the equivalent of saying all black people are in gangs or all Asian people are good at math.

I kind of have a hunch that a bunch of BBers would prefer an outlet where they can actually speak their mind and use profanity if they so choose rather than having the hammer brought down on them for every little thing. I bet more of them pop up here before long...
Damn straight! I was banned there so many times i lost count. I believe i said bitch once and called someone's dumbass bf "a winner". The mollinator AKA MORONator is the one who usually bans me. Btw, it doesnt take a lot of effort to make up a new screen name and user name. Duhhhhh. Bitches on the buzz are all rainbows and unicorns and shit. Glad we can speak our minds here.

People on welfare need cigarettes and alcohol way more than those not on welfare. TRUST.

The abuse stories? Embellished since the 80s. Ronald Reagan started the myth of the "welfare queen" and it's been widely renounced as complete bullshit.
So yeah. When I see someone at the grocery store with a fancy car, an iPhone, and carrying a coach bag assume that they had all of those things before they went on welfare. I also assume they did their own nails and possibly their own hair.
Assumptions make you look like an ass.

FTR: I know someone who fits the story of the "Welfare queen". I blame her for being a complete dummy and I blame her mom for enabling her.
I do not blame the system.

I'm no expert on the American welfare system (I literally know nothing about it, being Canadian).
This specific person that they are talking about actually did abuse and was open about it. That's how they knew she abused. She posted several times a day about how she spent her government money. I can't remember much specifics but there was a few "I need a new manicure, mines chipped" and "got my lip pierced today!" kind of scenarios.
I got the feel that when the convo first happened (on the Buzz) there was a lot of bashing of THIS woman, but not all welfare/WIC/whatever users. And maybe just the residual feelings from that get generalized since no one wants to go into detail all over again about THAT user. So it gets mixed up with having hatred towards all users of government assistance.
At least I hope so because we have depended on assistance before, and I am also a full time SAHM.
I'm a SAHM, my husband works FT.. I worked until 2 days before pushing out the first one.
In fact, these scenarios we speak of, are NOT just stories - my MIL and SIL are #1 abusers of the government, both complainers, hate working and feel everything is owed to them "just because" others get things for "free" so yeah, I stay away from them as much as I possibly can.
Re: Which BBers stayed?
There would be many, many fewer posters if they did.

Also it's pretty obvious in my area who abuses it and who doesn't.
