I want harder restrictions. I think once you've been on it for 2 years, thats it. No more. You had your chance. Same with the people who abuse workmans comp. It pisses me off to no end. I want reform. I want to know that my dollar is going to those who are going to help themselves. If you aren't going to help yourself, I don't want to help you.


Your dollar isn't going ANYWHERE. You're TAKING MONEY OUT OF THE SYSTEM, not adding to it.

Why is this so mind numbingly hard for people to understand? Until the average persons taxes reach about $60k a year at present, they are not paying into anything. They are slightly offsetting the size of the government expenditure to provide them with services.

You are taking the 'hand outs' at present unless you're paying a lot more taxes than I assume you are.

What we need is a nice authoratarian, reactionary, even Facist regime to take over the coutry for a few years to cleanse and reeducate. That would fix everything.

Right, because you can work at McDonalds with no benefits and raise a couple kids and pay rent and daycare while you're at work. You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. Someone working in a minimum wage job can't even pay for the daycare while they're in work.

Heh. This is a funny topic considering over 50% of the population have jobs that keep them J.O.B. (Just Over Broke). The definition of poor is what I think a lot of people have an issue in understanding. The gubberment in Canada has tried devising ways to identify people who abuse the system to make it less of a burden on we taxpayers. The real question that should be asked is, as a taxpayer, would you prefer not to have that social safety net in case something out of your control goes bad and you need a bit of help so you don't lose everything, or would you prefer to crash and burn if it meant not paying for the service at all?

It's easy for someone who doesn't live paycheque to paycheque to answer that question, but what about the vast population who does?

Perfect example of why should you have to file for a license before you can breed. If you can't meet the qualifications, you don't multiply. If something happens to you and you can't take care of them. Group Homes will help until you are on your feet again. If you are willing to go the extra mile to be able to get to the point where you can provide an acceptable living arrangement for your children, you can have them back. I realize people are going to cry "its too hard" to give up their child, but when it's better for them in the long run?

It'll be slightly amusing, and yet boringly predictable how you view of this will be the diametric opposite if you ever have kids.

(Yes, I know, I'm joking)

Ok, so if you and your husband have some kids and it is agreed that you will stay home to care for them, then the ******* disappears and you discover that he's left you with $20k in credit card debt, you think the appropriate action would be to also take your children away rather than give you some money until you can get things straightened out? This is what you're telling me? You're completely ******* crazy sometimes Katie. I really hope you're just being hard headed here and only applying this nutty "vision" of yours to some bizarre extreme cases that made the news, because in the real world, someone being on welfare doesn't equate to them being a bad parent.

No, I am ******* crazy, I admit. I'd also like to point out you are not taking in the whole conversation If you'd read the whole discussion you'd realize I'm talking only about those ones that don't try. The ones content to do nothing but collect a govt check just because they had a child. I'm for helping those who want to help themselves. I'm against the ones who use the system as a means of earning a wage and never once go out there and try to better themselves. You get left with a child because your husband is a ball-less half wit, I'm more than willing to help you, but I'm not going to support you from now and until forever. You have to show "good faith", show you are going to try to better yourself, not just sit around eating bon bons and talking to this or that internet lover in a govt reduced home, with a meal card.
