Lottery winner still on gov. assistance

From The Daily Caller:
While most people have played the “if I had a million dollars I would ____ ” thought game, few fill that blank in with “stay on public assistance.”

Amanda Clayton, a 24-year-old from Lincoln Park, Michigan, is one of the few who does, and she is getting away with it. Clayton won $1 million from the Michigan State Lottery this fall, but she is still collecting and using $200 a month in food assistance from the taxpayers with her Michigan Bridge Card.

“I thought that they would cut me off, but since they didn’t, I thought maybe it was okay because I’m not working,” ...

When Local 4 asked if she felt she had a right to the money, Clayton responded, “I mean I kinda do.”

One example of what's wrong with America. Anyone wonder who she'll be voting for?
