How many people working minimum wage jobs and supposedly needing government assistance have video game systems? Do you think it's a significant percentage?
Is it the job of government to make people comfortable in part-time jobs? How comfortable?
I'm happy if people in food service can afford video consoles. However, if they can afford new video game systems they don't need taxpayers to help them buy food, and stories about how bad off these workers are lose some punch.
In Wisconsin you can make so much on public assistance that it wouldn't be worth your while to take a job which paid less than $10 an hour.
I would guess a lot of them. Some, no doubt come from the do gooders at Christmas time, but they also likely buy them. Gotta teach those little gang bangers how to shoot before they go out on the street for real! Bu hey, Obama will be giving them free ones. After all, it's all about the 'cheeeeeeeeldrin.'
