[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is commmon for a lot of ESL immigrant families to put too many people in one house.  If you were to add up the incomes of all the people in that house, no way would they be under the poverty line.   You're lying to yourself if you think these people don't know how to take advantage of the system and report only the income of one family member on the form to get free or reduced meals for heir kids.  Word travels fast in the immigrant communities about how to save money.  If they ever get caught, they just play dumb and pretend like they didn't understand because they no speak English good.

You sound dumb and racist. Different families living in one home may be a housing violation but it isn't a violation for public assistance programs. You seem to fail to grasp that a household, for public assistance purposes, relates to family members who are legally responsible for each other. The entire household is not counted, and why would it be? Your roommate or friend isn't responsible for providing food to your kids. Also, don't forget that for each additional person the income limit increases.

Please, take tour disillusioned, idiotic, xenophobic crap elsewhere. Or at LEAST learn a little bit about what you're talking about, because you clearly have zero idea about how social services work. [/quote]

And you sound like you live somewhere other than the real world.  If you think these immigrant families aren't taking advantage of the system, I have a bridge I'd like to sell you. [/quote]
