This is a lie.  Food stamps alone take up 2%, not to mention Medicaid, SSI,
public housing, and unemployment.  In addition, the states pay 21 billion
dollars a year on AFDC alone.

Here's your welfare reform:  get rid of it.  Doesn't cost a penny.  Yes,
some of them will continue to think that society owes them something and
try to steal from others.  That's where the right to bear arms comes in.  
Some of them will actually try a novel concept called WORK.
