    Unless I am mistaken (none / 0) (#3)

    There is no residency requirement to draw welfare benifits in Michigan. Something that I have always wondered about. This has led to abuse of the system. I won't go into details about the scams but surfice it to say they exist.
    You must live in Michigan for 6 months in order to get a drivers license issued by this state and you must purchase a non-resident fishing or hunting license until you have established residency and that is 6 months in duration. Why not demand a residency requirement for the drawing of welfare benefits. If you come to Michigan, you need to have a job or a means of support rather then have the already overstressed citizens of this state support you. It would help to keep some of the pilfering down I think. But yes, I also agree that four years drawing welfare is too long. Didn't the Czarina sign a welfare reform bill limiting drawing welfare to three years per person per lifetime? Anything that can be done to do away with the professional dependent class is okay by me.
