I read it.

The griping is more about the system, not this one link.

You need to go visit your neighbors, chat em up, count up their electronics & clothing value, then factor their public assitance… then come back and post. Black Rock / Riverside is becoming the new lower west side.

There is more Section 8 shit in your area then there is in the east side. I grew up in both places… its beyond bullshit when folks who are claiming other peoples kids ontheir taxes; safehousing their assets under the names of deceased family members; collecting SSI, SSDI, FoodStamps, Medicaid, & Welfare - meanwhile they are spending money like their name was Chris Newman.

All the while people like my mother had to work 70 hrs a week, go to night school @ medaille, and couldn’t get pub asst for her and her two small kids.

Yea… lets be realistic.
