It wasn't just a jab at stoners in general, just the ones who do nothing but smoke weed and sit on wellfare.

That is such a small number it is not even worth mentioning.


All drug users who sit on wellfare and don't work isn't a small number.


Hasn't every attempt to drug test welfare users ended up costing a ton of money and only finding a few examples at best?

Good. I'll be happy to know my tax dollars aren't being wasted on people who don't work and just sit around smoking weed all day anymore.

LMAO you're literally on Medicaid. You probably think you deserve it but other people don't.

Loser.


I'm not on Medicaid. Lol

Yes


Not to mention how many idiots in this topic don't actually know anything about welfare beneficiaries, the length they get assistance for, nor who the majority that receives assistance is (hint: it's not blacks and Mexicans).

https://www.thoughtco.com/who-really-receives-welfare-4126592

You can find many other studies, articles, and raw data on it too.

I rarely talk about any of this because talking to people like the ones present in this topic is like talking to a brick wall. If trump doesn't say it they don't listen.

Eh, not really. There's different types of welfare, including foodstamps. There's people who don't apply themselves or try to advance their lives and stay working in restaurants because "Ugh I can't apply here and here because I smoke everyday and they drug test and blah blah blah". So they're low income, low motivation, living day by day just smoking pot, frozen in time while life passes them by and many are ultimately a burden on others when they don't have to be.

And then the pot tells them, "It's okay, it's not your fault. It's the stupid system is why you can't make more money" and they just accept it and continue their path.


/things people who've never smoked weed say.

Lazy useless stoners exist but guess what? It's not the weed. It's the person. They already were lazy unmotivated fucks before they smoked. It just happened to agree with them cause it makes doing fuck all and being bored a lot more enjoyable.

I'm 100% on board with federally legalizing marijuana and forcing jobs to stop discriminating against users. With that said, it's regulated by supply and demand when you don't live in a legal state, and if people have money for marijuana (street price), then they don't need government money. That's for people who can't get by when they DONT buy luxury items. We are talking about people spending $60-90 for 1/8 of an ounce of a substance. If you can't make rent and don't wanna work, guess what? You don't get to smoke.

Welfare should only be for people who work but don't make enough money. And they should only be on welfare for a max of six months. If you're a student you should get welfare until you graduate. No more people living off welfare.

To be honest 60-90 1/8 these days for even best dro is a rip off. Even way back when there weren't any states that had it legalized recreational most it ever cost was 45

I haven't seen anything better than 100 a half for dro. Paying 90 for 1/8 is ridic, yes, but 60 is about top end price for it.

Yeah that sounds about fair. Homies were about 40, shops in Cali are 50 a O so 60 is prob fair in most places.

I need welfare. I have needed it all my life. I have worked to get off my Social security disability and be completely independent but I Am not there. I have managed to keep a job for three years and I hope to one day be off SSDI but if I was cut off years ago like you suggest I would never have gotten as far as I did.

I know it's hard work but welfare should be a case by case basis.

Great, and right as I'm on the verge of homelessness and might need welfare to survive, assuming I even qualify.

I need to make it a point to spit in the face of any Trump supporter I encounter from now on (Clinton ones too, actually, she's no better when it comes to the shitting on the lower class).

I assumed from your implication of 8 years you actually meant a government controlled by the Democratic party, which is laughably wrong. If your "gotcha!" was about the country being a Democracy, then you're even more wrong.

Either way you're wrong

that's what they started before. if able-bodied it's required to work in order to get food help (doesn't apply to unable to work for reasons such as a disability or senior citizen).

3 months is the maximum per year if don't work.
