Question by Luna M: Is there any help for poor women without children?
I have a friend who is struggling financially. She has worked most of her life. She did not have any children. She has never had a substance abuse issue. Her crime was marrying an abusive man. Now when she needs help the system tells her she is on her own. Other than food stamps what is there? The wait for low income housing is so long she will probably never get in. She doesn’t fall into a “special category”.
BTW, I have to jobs to make ends meet.

Question by FAITH: How come people on government assistance are not subject to a drug test before and while receiving benefits?
Our tax dollars are paying for a lot of people’s drug addictions. I know here in California, most people on welfare are also on some type of drug abuse. They will take the General Relief money and Food Stamps and feed their drug habit instead of the kids. I believe they should all be subject to drug testing to receive benefits from our tax money and continue with unannounced drug testing to continue to receive payments. We the tax payers have a right to where the money is going.
