PRESIDENT TRUMP signs exec order cutting off taxpayer cash to illegal aliens

@KingofBones1 There will be plenty of money for those who cannot work or are retired if they stop with the atrocious amount of corruption.
Those who have played the system, especially generational welfare abusers, will soon need to learn how to get up in the morning, get dressed & go to work for what they need instead of having everything handed to them. Know a teacher who worked in an inner-city school and he’d hear 14-year old girls talking about how they were going to get pregnant when they got around 16 so they could move out from their mother’s home & get welfare, food stamps, EBT etc. In Oklahoma you have to work 20 hours a week if you don’t have a child under the age of 5 in order to get that now…so the girls would be having numerous babies spaced about 4-5 years apart. This has been going on for about 60 years.

@cherokeepatti that's fine when it comes to things like that I don't mind you know because I do agree there is a lot of fraud in the system and making it a little bit more harder to obtain or having a few more monitor requirements in place I don't have an issue with that. But what I do have an issue with is say you have an adult with PTSD bipolar ADHD or Autism or several other qualifying disorders that cannot work or has a physical disability let's say is a heart patient or has a cute diabetes or something like that that is a debilitating condition those people should not be required and you're right it should require a doctor's signature and paperwork which it does I have no issue with that either I just want to make sure that there is money for the right people and that those people don't get cut off as part of a blanket rule. Because unfortunately when government seems to step in they usually don't use a scalpel to perform surgery in this case as it was actually quoted they want to use a chainsaw

@KingofBones1 every case will probably be investigated again. I have heard some children who were hyperactive were being put on disability as children and kept getting it as adults. Some of those children were probably ingesting a lot of junk food full of dyes and chemicals. Some parents had several children who were on disability, no need for them to work when they were pulling in several disability checks. And no desire for them to investigate and try changes in diets either.

My friend had a child who has autism, he is 28 years old and is like a young child. They can’t leave him at home by himself He was in a special school as a child and then later an adult school that helped teach some skills for around the house. I can’t imagine them kicking him off of disability. If his parents die he will need to live in a group home. My friend was about 40 when she had him so it’s likely that will happen one day.

@cherokeepatti and that's why I said specific disorders because I do know the difference between someone being hyperactive and someone being bipolar or severely impaired and if they just have a simple doctor's note that should not cut it versus say somebody with 18 years or 20 plus years worth of several diagnosis from different authorities on the issue. I am very sorry to hear about your child because I know somebody in a similar situation A good friend of mine actually and after 20 years of caring for her son it is gotten to the point now that he has to be placed in a program with a long distance conservatorship so I truly feel for you my heart goes out to those people. Lastly I collect disability which is PTSD related and also social anxiety of which I take sleep medication and also c a l m i n g communication when I have severe anxiety which I have learned to pretty much control but still the disorder is there. I have almost 18 years of different records from different authorities. And recently I did complete another review. These are the kinds of cases I worry about being covered. That's why I said I have no problem with them thoroughly reviewing something. But going through it with a chainsaw and wild assumptions especially when it comes to a d o g e with no medical knowledge making the decisions I do find that troubling. I wish you the best for your son and all of us during these troubled times

@cherokeepatti the other sad reality is did you know when it comes to food stamp assistance there are over 350,000 veterans and families and it is only going up that depend on Snap assistance to make it by every month. Food banks are even suffering now because of the inflated cost on Goods it was on the news here locally that contributions are down and assistance is actually going up so it is definitely having some adverse effects

@KingofBones1 It is not my child but my friend’s child. He is 28 years old now and their only child so no siblings there to help if they die

@cherokeepatti okay I apologize friend's child but regardless my heart goes out
