Of course he also had money/credit card to do the move and had a job or at least a lead to a job before he moved as well as money to live off of for a bit until he did start bringing home a paycheck.
If he wasn't there doing that, how would Kiwi do it?

Yeah, if KNYTE can get out of a shithole (Utah), then anyone can. He's got short legs = lots of walking
in the summer time, the only thing we are using gas for right now is laundry, how ridiculous is that?
I just opened my Gas and Electric bill. $322.70
I can understand that prices are skyrocketing and all of us are feeling the strain, but I'll go out and get a job flipping burgers before I'll take government assistance. I really can't stand people that milk the system for all it is worth. I wish there were an easy solution for this. The homeless populations are rising, and I really don't care much about people who don't want to work and support themselves. That is their choice. However, I don't like seeing these people all over the streets begging me for Dan's hard earned dime. I wish they'd just go hide somewhere and leave us alone.
Not that I agree with abusing the system, but let me play Devil's Advocate a minute (I love doing that )
The area they are in, Fostoria, is really small, separated by lots of land. The average mileage on cars there is 30 to 40K a year because work and home and stores for groceries is so spread out. The town itself is a small town on a major state route junction. First thing would be for them to move.
Lots of the business there is by travellers to places like restaurants and gas stations. If people aren't driving as much (which is true) and they aren't spending as much on restaurant or fast food to save money (which they are) that town's "industries" would suffer. When she says restaurants and such aren't hiring, she probably isn't lying.
Getting a job elsewhere would involve driving to the next biggest town, the hole that is Toledo. Driving 40 miles each way to get the only job available in that dying town (McD's) isn't at all wise.
Now granted the fat bitch needs to die AND stop abusing the system, she might make some real points. She is of course taking them to her advantage, but the point that lower income people living in a town that has no public transport (which Fostoria does not have) and that the average commute is double digits (negating the argument for walking or even biking) in an area with 4 seasons, finding a job would be difficult. Also, she probably has no money to transfer to a better city, either, so she's in essence stuck.
The bitch still needs to die, though.
This is why I very rarely do anything for the homeless. They can fend for themselves... animals in shelters cannot.
they could always move. the only thing that bothers me about this is they havn't exausted all of their options and seem to be unwilling to do so...
Outside of that, 45 years working at GM leaves alot of money behind... these people are just horrible with finances. Doesn't matter if they had 100k a year jobs, they'd still end up with nothing and begging for food at the end of the month.
Welfare should only be given to those willing to take and do well in public provided classes on subjects such as raising a child, proper finances, english, job skills, etc... if they are on welfare, they arn't working anyways, so why can't they show up to a few hours of classes a week?
If it was up to me, I'd get rid of welfare/social security altogethor. Provide public day care and bus passes to those who are below a certain income, and limit the amount of years they can be on foodstamps.
Hell, make them go out in a field and dig a ditch for their government supplements. That's what they made them do when the system started. We have plenty of levee's that need more dirt thrown on them.
still have a hard time getting my mind around the idea that "Unemployment" and "jobs that Americans aren't willing to do" can coexist.

And you know how many jobs there are available in Columbus? People need to go where the jobs are. The Housing market here even goes from shanties to mansions so it's not like they wouldn't be able to afford to live here.
I don't get it. There is not a job that is beneath me. I cleaned toilets in college. If I got laid off, I would be work what I needed to. I agree it doesn't make sense. I guess food isn't that important to them if they don't want to work for it.
