I'm from Monroe Projects in the Bronx N.Y, where 90%% of us were on welfare. When I was born I was on welfare, eating welfare cheese and watching my family struggle to get by and survive on a daily basis, so I know what it's like to try to survive living on public assistance. I often go through my old hood and reminisce about the old days, and it makes me feel grateful that i've made it to see 41 years old, because a lot of my friends haven't! I have been going through some rough times recently, and it has made me have to revert back to the survival tactics that I grew up on when I was on welfare! Sacrifice, discipline, little money, etc... The only difference is I have a Government job and a mouth to feed! A middle-class worker with a welfare recipient mentality!
