MASS welfare folk get free cars (!)

...and insurance...and repairs...and AAA membership...

I guess that is yet another "right" that we have to provide for leeches.

From the article:

Gov. Deval Patrick’s free wheels for welfare recipients program is revving up despite the stalled economy, as the keys to donated cars loaded with state-funded insurance, repairs and even AAA membership are handed out to get them to work.
But the program - fueled by a funding boost despite the state’s fiscal crash - allows those who end up back on welfare to keep the cars anyway.

That guy should be jailed for theft. Can we give Massachusetts to China?

I'm trying to figure out why this would cost $6,000 per car if the cars were charitable donations to begin with.

The only cost would be the repairs and insurance.

Who's making all the money here?

You gotta remember..this is the state that has a murderer for a senator, and a pedophile for a congressman.

Corruption should come naturally for such a morally bankrupt state.

They are already getting cellphones subsidized by the government.

Not familiar with the reps, but just consider the senators that have taken root - nuff said!
