Yeah because being unemployed and on food stamps is a career choice..

Maybe for some, living in the back woods of BC.
lol Don't get me wrong, I agree that having something to do is better than not, but as I said, they're still not doing any better to improve their lives.

We're probably a lot healthier than you city peeps. Better water, better food, better air, more activity, etc.

You just made my case.

Trump made huge changes to welfare and prison.

baaaahahahaha Huge changes to welfare.
"In his 2018 State of the Union address, President Trump promised to move more Americans from welfare to work, from dependence to independence, and from poverty to prosperity. This year, on December 4, he delivered on that promise, finalizing one of the biggest welfare reforms in a generation.
Nope. They may be working now but they sure as hell aren't independent or prosperous
And "prison reform? I guess that is what he considers letting felons out on pardons. lol

Have you thought to check the length of prison sentences in the U.S. compared to those in Canada for similar crimes? "Warehousing" should only be reserved for the most dangerous incorrigible criminals. I knew of a case of a Canadian doing many years in the U.S. for smuggling a little pot. At least Trump seems to have gotten the picture and is starting to deal with it.

A lot of it isn't, I agree.

It pays more than enough. So we give away 10-12% of our total net per year.
BTW, hubby isn't "working under the table". He has his own repair business and pays taxes.
Keep guessing about stuff you haven't a clue about.
