While most people have played the “if I had a million dollars I would ____ ” thought game, few fill that blank in with “stay on public assistance.”
Amanda Clayton, a 24-year-old from Lincoln Park, Michigan, is one of the few who does, and she is getting away with it. Clayton won $1 million from the Michigan State Lottery this fall, but she is still collecting and using $200 a month in food assistance from the taxpayers with her Michigan Bridge Card.
“I thought that they would cut me off, but since they didn’t, I thought maybe it was okay because I’m not working,” the lottery winner who just purchased a new house and car told Local 4 in Detroit. The station even filmed her shamelessly purchasing goods.
When Local 4 asked if she felt she had a right to the money, Clayton responded, “I mean I kinda do.”
Clayton justified the sentiment by explaining that after taking her winnings in a lump sum and having to pay taxes, the total amount was just over half of the initial winnings.
“I feel that it’s okay because I mean, I have no income and I have bills to pay,” she said. “I have two houses.”
Rest of article in link including News 4 confronting her on video.
She should be billed for what she's received since winning the lottery imho. She should also be scolded like a child for being so stupid and inconsiderate, as well.
She'll be broke again in a year...
Reminds me of some old MTV show where Old DB was geting his old school paper stamps cash out to him. This chick is just a dumbass.
I could see where some people could and would have some left over legitimate anger towards the State (wrongful imprisonment, raped as a kid and State prosecution dropped the ball and/or aided the molesters case), but this chick gives no indication of any such.
In front of the cameras and all. Give it a rest chick.
"I'm not working and i have bills to pay"
What the did her house cost in Detroit? 5 grand?And it's legal.

I believe CTOA was poking fun at the stereotype that all lotteries are won by minorities. Non-whites participate in lotteries at a higher rate than whites do.
Yes. Exactly.
Yeah sure. I thought you were making stereotypical comments regarding her choice in apparel.
Calif did some sort of check with casinos that were accepting forms of gov't welfare type payouts. The results were shameful.
As if no one running the programs could have foreseen it.

Didn't you know?
There are more white people on public assistance than minorities. wanting to curtail welfare type programs is not a racist thing.
It's not just women. we have probably as many or more men who are shameless. What about those who are absent fathers, or don't pay their child support who can? So many other categories, but these shameless men... their offspring would be better off if these fathers were dead.
Why do you hate America, fabbs? Quit being racist.Calif did some sort of check with casinos that were accepting forms of gov't welfare type payouts. The results were shameful.

You can pick up housing in Detroit for a song. D-town has about 1/3rd the people it did at its height.
Nice place, tho:
Besides, times are tough, she apparently can't afford makeup or having her hair done any more:
