That's what I did and that's what my kids are doing. What makes you so privileged?

Are you planning on paying back all that welfare?

im sorry you had to realize how cold you sounded. i need to get off welfare huh..the only reason i got on welfare was to remove a broken tooth. and in case i need an asthma pump. thats all i use it for. i dont go for check ups and cleanings..im quite frugal about how i use YOUR money. Hell i don't even get cash assistance or an ebt card... what kind of human says stop voluteering time to help his fellow man? funny thing is I AM PUTTING MY SELF THROUGH COLLEGE ..with grants I EARNED from americorps..and i do pay my own bills the state doesn't help me pay for my groceries...i overdrew 200 dollars from my account to feed MYSELF and I will have to pay it back to the bank of america...not you...what makes me privileged...if i was i wouldn't have to be on state heatlh insurance now would i? but ill tell you what IS a priviledge for me...seeing a struggling mother of three in a home...instead of on the streets...seeing a baby thats being fed instead of starving...and most importantly...seeing the things that REALLY matter in life...not how big a damn grin i can give my girlfriend by making a diamond her 'best friend' or seeing that im no better then a person sleeping on the street corner...thats priviledge to me.
