absolutely. i agree. but just like the example i gave of sister, many able bodied folks on section 8 don't see any incentive to further their education (for example) so that they're no longer working part time minimum wage jobs and no longer need the crutch. i know damn sure i wouldn't.
if a fire is lit under some asses, folks will do what they gotta do stop being dependent on the goverment.

or not. This isn't usually the case, they just stay poor. Sometimes the fire is education, sometimes illegal activity

i feel you, nita.
but if section 8 was limited to say 5 years, i can almost guarantee most people would spend the last couple of years of their stay working on anything that would keep them from living under a bridge.

they could pull the rug out from under folks at any given time. if there were a time limit, at least people would be duly noted and prepared.

but this isn't true for many. They got rid of EUC and most would think...good, now people will try harder to get a job. Hasn't worked. Pulling the safety net from everyone shouldn't be done so a few can be motivated.

what do you think the solution should be? should people be allowed to stay on section 8 forever?
i honestly wouldn't care one way or another tbh cause i'm all for supporting those less fortunate than i am (not that i'm financially fortunate in the least. not by a looooooong shot lol), but for the purpose of discourse, what do you think should be done?

The problem isn't section 8 or the time limit.
They were unmotivated before section 8. How did end up on the net to begin with. Why are her kids so destructive? that is the issue.
