I'm from/in houston and there was a young man that out of sincerity he thought to help the evacs at allowing them to stay at the motel on I-10 where he worked the front. He asked the owner since they had extra rooms that they could stay there. Well, after a 2 weeks gone by...they were told of the need for the space for some income to keep up the motel. That if they continued to let them "live" there, then the motel would go under. Well, instead of saying thank you for letting them stay as long as they could and realize the predicament the motel and the young man was in...they called the local news. Oh it was "poor us", "you promised us that" and "our money cards won't be in till another 10 days and the least you could do is wait till we get them".
This poor young man got fingers and loud mouths in his face on tv.
The people did not even realize that a motel on an interstate highway has high overhead and has it's own bills and must depend on it's profits to stay afloat and to pay it's employees.
Now, this is behind the scenes.
There is a man from mexico that has made quite a business in mowing lawns from scratch. He has several trucks that have trailers on them pulling all their equipment and they have lots of business here because of it's so cheap. My dad even uses him.
well,since he is from mexico...he knows jobs are scarce there, and in mexico,if there is a work truck asking for bodies to work, you get on.
The survival of the family is important and working is counted as a blessing.That is why so many come here in hopes of a job.
Well, yeah, he thought to help out the victims by giving them a job oppurtunity by hoping on the "work truck" at 75$ a day(8 hours) and for every young or old body that can work.
They refused. Not one went to seize the oppurtunity to gain provision for their families.
You would think fathers and older sons and uncles and even strong women and ladies that could go and earn 75$ a day..would do it, considering they pleaded the need of it.
Why even families of 2 older teenage sons and a father could raise $225 in one day and in just five days that would be $1,125.00. That's not chump change.
at the very least...one member of the family could work and make in those five days and make $375.
Now if my famly (of four kids) needed pampers and diaper rash ointment and food and toiletries and water and neccesities and know that a motel cannot help out everyone for an unlimited amount of time ...then my husband from day one..would be out begging for a job to be able to come back with an arm of groceries and needs and then some to even save( in which they could have done) for an apartment(around here there is some real cheap-with all bills paid) and that would be a place to live for one month and in that month a job of that amount each week would be a definite welcome in another state till things are straightened out on what to do further.
For those people just went back to swimming after they called the news station.
Hmmm, starving..... but the pool was filled.
yeah, I'd say it's not a racial thing...it's a passed down of the handout dependency thinking that has really made the issue. The state itself is a huge welfare state.
Welfare was designed to help those out for a small amount of time for those who need it, not abuse it to the point of making it into a steady income support instead of a job.
It sickened me as once a cashier that I'd see people on welfare buying candy and cokes and their kids be all dirty and with old tattered too small clothes while their young moms and dads would have gold chains and earrings,nose and toe rings, and hair done from the salon and manicures and sporting the latest tommy hilfiger. They'd go right acrosss to kfc and buy from there and most youth parents on welfare don't even know how to cook and the the rest just prefer not to.
Wow, the convienience of tax dollars at work!
Remember to work hard...those on welfare are depending on you.
I say,
Beans and rice and milk and cheese and bread and fruit.
Want more? Get a job.
