Her hospital bill for the 8 kids 1.5 million (an estimate) billed to the state of Ca.
Now her food stamps will jump and maybe they will have some of these other children listed as disabled. I bet before this is over with she and her children will cost the tax payers over 3 to 5 million. Another thing to remember is she is now unemployeed and there is no way she has the time to hold a job and who would hire a single mother of 14 kids. This is what I call a broken system and it happens every day in the US but on a much smaller scale.

sometimes i question why i even try anymore. get up before the sun rises, spend 15 bucks a day driving 110 miles roundtrip to and from work, drink crap canned beer, spent 7 years going to college and law school, pay 300 a month to healthcare, at 30 freaking years old had to bring in a roomate to help pay rent, play by all the rules and this lady gets free money.

in all due respect i wouldnt trade my position for hers if you gave me a million dollars and i do get to hold my head up high i suppose. thank goodness for pres reagan.

go skins!!
