"With an extra $850 a month, people will be able to enjoy the sunlight and will be able to spend more time with their babies."

So for a couple years, the plan is to take the money and do nothing with it? Yeah - I'm going to keep my shit job, do nothing to improve my skills and education, coast on the Government Dole, and then bitch about disparity and lack of opportunity while clamoring for a bigger check for the next couple years because "I deserve it"? Guess what? This "rich, entitled, privileged white boy doesn't get a damn thing from anyone - no hand outs, no grants, no special circumstances, no forgiveness, and I don't have a degree. I work, every damn day, and it's up to me to try to make things better for myself. $10K per year would pay for a degree or a really good trade school - but why do that when Da' Gov' is just going to hand out free shit?

These are stupid attempts to get this to catch fire and go across the country. They study this and expect it to what not help them? How could handing someone that you have prescreened to be successful if you hand them money not be successful of you hand them this money?
Im truly dumbfounded by these people and these studies saying oh look it helped them and they did better being handed $850/month. Well no shit Sherlock.

Pure gold here: "The program won't offer any financial literacy courses nor advise how participants will use the money. Wollensack says that, in surveying and researching the community and its financial needs, people can be trusted to make the right choices using their resources, but don't have a lot of resources to start with."

Bullshit. No question - they're broke, and it sucks. The money won't do a damn thing other than artificially filling a gap. Want to genuinely HELP someone? How about education credits with continued participation being based on successful completion of classes? 10,000 years of human nature has proven that something earned and worked for provides real benefit. Handouts just breed apathy. Classes don't put food on the table and take time - but anyone who recognizes the VALUE of it gets that they'll benefit and improve themself. Hell, Community College doesn't even cost that much, so make part of the grant the ability to take a meal home from the cafeteria on days they are in class. Pennies, and honestly already covered under other social welfare programs. What is it about these moron liberals that makes them think that anything not earned does anything other than create a false sense of entitlement?

When Michelle Lockhart was a teenager in Atlanta, she had to work two jobs -- as a camp counselor and fast-food worker -- to take care of her family.

She said her mother became disabled at that time due to a brain tumor, but it took months of cutting through red tape to qualify for desperately needed federal assistance.

What was her dad doing?

And that is why black women actually are struggling. The black family unit is the least successful of all races. The vast majority of children are born out of wedlock and without a father in their lives. I will agree: when you're 17 without high school and a kid to take care of it's pretty fucking hard to do it. This is why you cannot let yourself get into that position to begin with.

I didn't check his data but I bet it's correct. Dave Ramsey says there are three key markers to avoid poverty. They work extremely well. If you 1) Get your high school diploma, 2) Get married before having kids, 3) Have those kids after age 20.

These people will never learn the more you subsidize a behavior the more of it you will get in the future.

Came to post more or less the same thing on that exact quote which caught my eye.

No need to do the study, the attitude in her quote tells us the result already.

I believe in equal opportunity and after that is given then work your ass off to succeed.

Government act like if the money is theirs to do whatever they please.

What happens when the last idiot paying taxes says "I quit" ?

The people who advocate for these programs believe the target err I mean. Beneficiary of these programs are too stupid, incapable of doing any better or don’t have the drive to help themselves out of poverty, so they will always need help. Talk about institutional racism.

Give it a break! Fix education and create real jobs!

Simple, no?

Just another step towards guaranteed income. When implemented will be politicized by a party for election purposes. It's amazing how easily and cheaply people can be paid off. The globalist make billions while a tax credit, $15.00 hr or $850.00 monthly stops most from taking real meaningful action. I'm talking both sides of the isle here. I think it pretty clear now that Dems and Rep, IMHO are two heads of the same snake. I felt that way in 1990 and Trump proved me right. lol
