@ProPublica || In both the AFDC and Food Stamps manuals were a provision for "work requirements" that was supposed to work between Unemployment and Welfare offices. It cost too much and did to little to justify it's existence. The real waste is in oversight, "The watchers" 5 distinct offices between state and federal + local. This is because of all the people yelling about how inefficient it was at "Spending the Peebles Money". OMG. 🤣 😂 🤣 😂

@ProPublica

If there’s one #Republicans are good at, it’s blowing millions of our taxpayer dollars to ensure they can keep making things worse for—or not helping all—the people most in need.

I can’t wait until the #GOP tears itself apart so a genuine conservative party emerges from the ashes of the embarrassment the Tea Party and MAGA inhabit today.

And this is where right wingers gas light people by proclaiming it was worth it.

@ProPublica It's Georgia! This shouldn't be surprising. Those old conservatives are desperately trying show they can fix things...they can't! The good 'ol boys always make a mess of it.

@ProPublica Always important to keep in mind that harm mitigation and improving quality of life are NOT conservative goals.

Reinforcing the moral hierarchy and punishing those below you are.

System is working as intended.
