Here is how one 21-year-old Texas woman reportedly thinks we should solve poverty in America:
Give welfare recipients 50 lb. bags of rice and beans, bulk cheese and powdered milk instead of food stamps.
Conditions of Medicaid: Forced sterilization, mandatory drug testing.
Housing for the poor: Military barracks, subject to random inspections, must prove employment or join work brigades.
Disenfranchisement for the unemployed.
I really wish I was kidding. I’m sure this fascist un-Christian nightmare scenario doesn’t represent the views of everyone in Texas, but enough of the population to be an utter disgrace to the nation. For full details, read the forwarded email below:
