The temporary summer income could cause a family with genuine issues to be on the street.



Not everyone on assistance is trying to steal your tax money. You lack all the facts to make comments


True, not all people on public assistance are out to milk the system but there is a portion of the population that do just that and it costs those of us that have worked well in excess of 40 hours a week for years and have made many sacrifices such as missed school concerts, working on a holiday if needed, weekends as needed and generally whatever it takes to get ahead, a lot of $$$. I can’t blame any successful hard working individual for being suspicious when it comes to individuals requesting public assistance. Public assistance is something that defines us as a civilized nation but we need to guard against the abuses of the system so that it retains it’s integrity and original intention, a short term safety net, not a permanent lifestyle.
