Welfare Cash for Lap Dances

Lap dances are made in America. Who knows where those diapers have been?

 

"I used my earnings from our Credit Derivatives desk to buy 263 lap dances at Scores, an Audi TT and 140 dinners at Spark's, Peter Luger's and the Palm."

- the quote from a New York Post "fraud" story you'll never, ever see.

 

The Post runs those. Some Wall Street clown goes to Flash Dance, drops down his Platinum card and wakes up the next day with a $100,000 charge.

 

Murdoch's propaganda hydrants are not credible news sources for any purpose. Anything so originating can be safely presumed to be utter fucking bullshit. Anyone believing otherwise is a sucker.

 

Starman you take this shit to seriously. This should be a lighthearted thread and not debate on entitlements. Make it rain MF.

 

Sounds familiar ... like Katrina "victims" using EBT cards for plastic surgery?

 

This guy I know (cough, cough) used to hang out in a strip club with heavy Latina influences. He got to know (NOT in the biblical sense) one of the dancers pretty well and was chatting her up one early spring afternoon. She was in a very good mood because some crum-bum had come in there that day and done all the dancers' taxes for them. She was getting something like a $4,000 refund, even though she took home a pretty tidy sum (all cash, of course) and it's probably a reasonable assumption that NOTHING was withheld. Turns out this tax preparer had simply asked each dancer how many dependents she had and filled in the rest of the numbers as he saw fit. These dollar amounts were exactly the same for all dancers with an identical number of dependents. This guy I know kept waiting to see the story about tax filing fraud, but stunningly nothing ever came of it.

 

Yeah, but the Post thinks the club is the one committing the fraud.

 

Comrade, when the revolution comes, there'll be lapdances for everyone!

A little more seriously, how many newspapers (or, well, ok, copies of the Post are bought with those dirty foodstamp dollars)?

 

Do the EBT dollar bills have Obama's picture?

 

No, but it's the homescreen on the Obamaphone.

 

This makes it easier for strippers to have more kids and become welfare queens. These food stamp stories are about as apocryphal as that.
