The most common welfare fraud committed, but never caught, is people saying they aren't working, but really are, under the table or not being listed as a member of the household. The man goes to supermarket loads up on food, woman goes and buys a new pair of kicks, they go through checkout line together, others looking on thinking, "WTF, get a job!" Now this story is majorly twisted. Welp, hate to burst your bubble... picture source https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_revenue Our American Government would not be able to sustain itself on our hard work alone.

Damn son you hurting more than me if you complaining about forty cents, come over later, I'll feed ya, I cook like a beast. But it never seems to fail right after a reporter/article states social security taxes can't pay for the retirees that are living now, they seem to jump right into a welfare report, right? Because half of you failed to notice my math was based on food stamps, not an assistance check, my guess, though, it'll probably work out to about the same, so here it is; Yes, our s.s. tax doesn't cover everyone we think it should and more is going out than that which is coming in.
