Just what Sex Workers needed—conservative newspaper, The New York Post, recently obtained the transfer records for the benefit cards (better known in the hood as the “welfare card”), from January 2011 to July 2012. You’re probably thinking like me–why the fuck does the New York Post care about welfare cards? Here’s why—the conservative audiences that the New York Post caters to feel like welfare recipients are the scum of the earth. They think all welfare recipients steal taxpayer’s hard-earned money to waste on booze and hoez. This latest freedom of information request doesn’t prove them wrong.
Withdrawals from ATM’s inside of establishments like The Wreck Room (bar), The Boiler Room (bar), Hanks Saloon (self explanatory), Drinks Galore (need I say more), Club Heat (strip club), Blue Door Video (xxx shop) and Shisha International (smoke shop). I’m the first person to stand up for people from low income backgrounds that utilize the system to their “benefit”. No pun intended. But this is a case of when keeping it real goes wrong. A single person gets $200 monthly in “Trick Daddy Dollars” better known as food stamps and $150 dollars in cash. If you want to max out your “benefits”, a family of four in New York could get $668 in “Trick Daddy Dollars” and $433 in cash.
I know Sex Workers or family members of Sex Workers or people they love might need the system one day. Let’s not make a fool of ourselves. Use welfare money for food, clothing and shelter and find a hustle to support your hobbies and habits.
