Hey Russell, if it is such a swell life, why don’t you join them. You get to live in crummy housing, eat the cheapest food at the market and wear clothes that last a year or two if you are lucky. Yeah, that is a real gravy train way to live. Why don’t you just jump right in with them.
And it is worth noting that some welfare recipients are working 40 hours a week (or more). But because they are paid so little (by the likes of McDonalds and other fast food outlets), they need help to make ends meet. So the CEO gets a two million dollar bonus and we the taxpayers pick up the tab to help their underpaid employees.
There used to be a radio spot pushing “your favorite TV news team carpooling to work.” I think the spot was pushing carpooling; but I digress. The team was going over what today’s news was. It seemed the lead story had something to do with a dam collapsing that caused no casualties; but the best teaser line they could come up with was “No one dies in dam disaster.” Ultimately, they came across an overturned poultry truck, leading to the teaser, “Chickens on freeway, film at eleven!”

Now the price of gravy will go up and make filling my hot tub even more expensive.

Not to worry. The gravy boat will be sailing on many American tables on Thanksgiving.
