What? That's a problem? If they strike it rich, they won't need welfare anymore right?

Welfare Recipients Using State-Issued Debit Cards at California Casinos, Media Mostly Mum
By Noel Sheppard (Bio | Archive)

The Los Angeles Times on Thursday published a blockbuster report concerning California welfare recipients using state-issued debit cards at casino ATMs to be able to instantly gamble with taxpayer dollars.

"The cards, provided by the Department of Social Services to help recipients feed and clothe their families, work in automated teller machines at 32 of 58 tribal casinos and 47 of 90 state-licensed poker rooms, the review found."

Despite this shocking revelation, America's media largely ignored the findings.

Video, and more at link.

Given free taxpayer money....cost the recipient 0 dollars.
Gambling on the State's dime....cost the recipient 0 dollars.
Free Drinks while gambling on the taxpayers $$$$......

Priceless...

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison
