Kansas welfare benefits spending limit

samedi 18 avril 2015 à 14:00

Kansas plans to limit welfare benefits spending to $25 per day.

So if a poor person faces debtor's prison if she doesn't pay a $50 fine, she will go to jail.

If she needs to get her nails done to apply for a job, that will be excluded too. Kansas legislators would rather she stay unemployed.

(It is unreasonable to require employees to to get their nails done, outside of a few occupations where beauty is the job, but they do.)
