Mass exodus from FL (FB shenanigans)

[wambam]

My H's shittiest aunt

MASS exodus from Florida . . .
Highway I-95 and I-75 will be jammed for the next
month or so with druggies and deadbeats heading
North out of Florida, because this is the first state
in the union to require drug testing to receive welfare.....

With a picture of a giant traffic jam

Although calling her his shittiest aunt is making me chuckle. How many shitty aunts does he have?

Three of them. They're all horrendous, but the shittiest is the one that when we called her to tell her we were engaged she cried and said "But wambam isn't catholic!!!"

It's not even true! It was found unconstitutional by two federal courts and Giv Scott chose not to appeal to the Supreme Court.

Also, drug tests of welfare beneficiaries in other states have found much less lower rates of drug use than the General population. And they cost a shit load of money to do.

Can she please flee as well? We don't want her here.

I would love to set her afloat in the middle of some remote ocean location.

If she could take the other two aunts and grandma with her, that'd be good.

And in FL, I believe the drug testing company was/is owned by a trust through Gov. Scott's wife.

I would put serious money that she thinks snopes is a liberal conspiracy.

Trying to speak her language - here's an article from Fox News: www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/03/05/florida-drops-appeal-court-ruling-striking-down-welfare-drug-test-law/

(It's actually an Associated Press article that appears other places, but I know the Fox News part is all that is important here)

Yes.  I have conservative relatives who think snopes is funded by librulz.

I've commented with snopes articles before when people post ridiculous articles from those right wing "news" websites, to which they seriously responded with "What, you gonna believe everything you read on the Internet?"

I've seen this a few times on my FB too. It grosses me out.I hate how the people that post that think they are so right, and seem to think it's such a great idea.

Is the traffic jam full of escalades? That's how you can really spot someone on welfare.

This is so dumb. It was only in effect for a few months and hasn't been for years. And weren't only like a handful of people actually turned down because of test results?

Also, it cost more to implement the program than they saved in withheld benefits. link
