Romney Flashback: Poor Mothers Should Be Required To Work Outside The Home Or Lose Welfare

They want other people to have to work. Not themselves.

Let her get some work experience

Or if overseas travel isn't her thing, I'm sure she could find something in harvesting early spring crops.

My house could use some cleaning and a new paint job. Think Ann might be available? I would pay well, but for someone who thinks $350,000 is chump change I couldn't match that.

"...but I want the individuals (if they work outside the home) to have the dignity of work."


Poor, poor clueless Mittons.

They have plenty of room, and Ann is famed as a proffessional stay at home mom now. They'll be glad to help out with that "dignity" thing.

The alternative is to draft grandparents into mandatory service because day care costs as much (or more) per hour as a working mother receives in today's job marketplace.

I'm sure Mitt knows that though, he's as firmly connected to the common classes as our signature power lunch of arugula and caviar sandwiches..

Hell, even one day of help would be a welcome addition.

to watch my pet snail (if I had one)

and get a real job!

Romney needs to get a better tax guy/ we know he wouldn't trust a tax Lady ~ what is the hold up?

His tax guy should be fired.

so his wife doesn't need to "have the dignity of work"

REPUKE VALUES IN ACTION

I thought Mitt Romney was a fraud. Now I know he's a thug.

Before one thinks that his motives are noble, however, I suspect it has more to do with making sure they have an income because he knows that so much of the community - such as payday loan places, banks, and thieving tax preparation places make millions of dollars from those who make some money, but a lot less than he does.

And his only costs won't be daycare, but paying workers to work at jobs which don't exist otherwise. I want to hear him explain that to his buddies.

I disagree with the motive, but I can't say that I disagree about the positive effect work, school, something would have on their spirit. Might require them to serve a couple hours a month on a school board, maybe attend a small business workshop and help them get a loan for a cooperative business with their neighbors. There are a LOT of possibilities.

They need something so that one day they can give the finger to and be free from the people that have been supporting/controlling them.

Welfare is nothing but being a serf to others, completely dependant on their political and bigoted whims. We need to create opportunities that people of ordinary means can take advantage of to use the potential they have. Or we will all suffer.

Other poor mothers?

in other words, the children of wealthy parents are worthy of having a parent at home, while the children of poor parents can just as well go without...

and pays $58 a day for it, but then goes to work to make $58 a day? Yeah, that makes so much sense, Mitt.

Although there is a kind of consistency for once. Since Anne had nannies and servants to do the hard part of the child rearing, rMoney simply wants all women to have some other low paid stranger doing their child rearing as well. So you see, he really is for equal opportunity among women.

Mittens can't tell if he is coming or going these days.

Dignity is something that goes with "job" about as well as "spiritual self-expression" goes with "job".

The Mittster sure knows what it's like to live for a year on what he makes in a half-an hour...

The presumed nominee of one of the two major parties who is so completely clueless about the state of average citizens.

Oh, wait a minute - John McCain, GWB, GHWB, RR...

I can only just shake my head while the country sinks lower and lower in the scientific and economic world.

I'm glad I'm old and won't have to endure more than a few decades of this horse hockey.
