I hope this is NOT REAL.....but I bet it is.....

No doubt this is very real--however people like this who are dishonest-lazy-and cheat and steal from the system will pay the ultimate price when they stand before the good lord on their day of judgement!

although it sure would be nice to see them punished for their dishonesty now

Welfare 101, know and work the system.;...can't repeat some of the video statemes on sites I have seen, but KEY IS TO BE A BIRTHING MOTHER; ...., BIRTHING MOTHER;..BIRTING MOTHER..., TIME AND TIME AGAIN.

Sorry to say I know a few who are second generation to this way of living..... PS: And one which I know, when asked what do you do;...."I'M A STAY AT HOME MOM".......Now that just burns my .......!

Brother Bob...first off thanks for your time serving our country, thus enabling me the right to sit in front of a computer screen and waste my time if I so choose to waste my time...thanks! If all that stuff got messed up in the military like you say then by all means draw the disability, you earned it for sure!

This ain't no offense to you at all, I just don't understand how someone can draw disability AND unemployment simultaneously. Other than pointing a finger at government and agreeing that it's ok just because they say it's ok, I simply don't understand it. It sounds like double dipping to me. And if you are or have in the past recieved disability and unemployment at the same time, more power to you, I don't blame you for taking it either, aint nothing illegal about it. It just kind of doesn't sit to well with me, knowing how broke the U.S. is right now and how much debt we have when I see or hear about things such as this. What it basically comes down to is the government idiots that work in the disability department aren't talking and coordinating with the governemt idiots working in the unemployment compensation department.

As it stands right now, this fella I know no longer works, he's on disability due to something that had to do with vietnam PLUS he draws unemployment...heck with all this in place he got a nice bump in pay when he got laid off....he brings more more than I do!

no offense taken, I earned my stripes and the stitches. I filed the paper, they send the money. I'll play by their rules,as I did when my assesses was on the line, so why argue noW

And yes, my disability check offsets part of my army retirement check, but not my fed civ service retirement check, nor my current term fed civ service check. When ya serve 3 ways, ya get paid 3 ways. And the census bureau paid me on top of that. That's why I drink good bourbon, as well as to kill the pain in my knees and shoulders. Next.

I'm paying for that guy to spend a few minutes a week filling out job applications, taking them around, and getting a piece of paper signed saying that he is doing it...so that he can get his check. After all, he is "actively seeking employment." Yeah. Right. I'm also an astronaut and I own this bar too.

I wonder if anything would happen if that manager picked up the phone, called the unemployment office, and told them that the guy applied for a job, he offered him one, and the guy turned it down?

Yeah, I know, dream on...
