EBT Rap Song vs Agnostic Front’s Public Assistance

I saw this video today courtesy of the Drudge report


Pretty bad right? I mean, I have a lot of empathy for folks who are down on their luck, lord knows I’ve been there!
On the other hand, their attitude is not making any fans so in the interest of equal time I present to you a tune by the band Agnostic Front, lyrics by the late Peter Steele. RIP.

You spend your life on welfare lines
Or looking for handouts
Why don’t you go find a job
You birth more kids to up your checks
So you can buy more drugs
Cash in food stamps and get drunk

[Chorus:]
Uncle Sam takes half my pay
So you can live for free
I got a family and bills to pay
No one hands money to me

You can go to school for nothing
Got that government grant
Get money in advance
When you’re sick from shooting up
Medicaid pays full portion
When little Maria gets knocked up
She gets a free abortion

[Chorus]
How come it’s minorities who cry
Things are too tough
On TV with their gold chains
Claim they don’t have enough
I say make them clean the sewers
Don’t take no resistance
If they don’t like it go to hell
And cut their public assistance
