People love stories about someone winning the lottery and then giving the money away. They’re less likely to feel fondly about Amanda Clayton, who won $1 million in the Michigan State Lottery but is still collecting food stamps.

    And here I thought you were a personal responsibility type. :?

    As much as you want to blame government bureaucracy that allowed this individual to slip through, this stupid bitch made the conscious decision to fraud her government because the stupid bitch owned two houses and the stupid bitch had no job after the stupid bitch won a million dollars.

    You can chose to call out the government, but I call out the stupid immoral unethical bitch.

    I'm still calling out the government because this was on the national news last night and they pointed out that Michigan has known about this problem and it's happened before.

    And they've done nothing about it. Meanwhile, it's perfectly legal for the young lady to win the lottery and to keep on taking subsidies because the state is too stupid to do anything about it.

    She's wrong, I agree. But so is Michigan's entire state government.

    Before I read the story, I was thinking: "Stupid bitch".
    After reading the story, I'm thinking: "Stupid, arrogant, DUMB bitch".

    meh not so bad considering the record of Manitoba's social services in regards to Phoenix Sinclair, and the MGEU trying to stop an inquest into the entire sordid matter.

    The "welfare mentality" in action. She feels entitled to it. After all, she has TWO houses to look after. The 500 thousand she has in the bank, will be used for designer duds, and shoes.

    Sounds like Mike Tyson. He pissed away a billion dollars in 10 years, then had a $10M comeback and pissed that away in 10 months. Does this woman have an entourage?

    She won 1 mil of which she had to pay 500k in taxes. So she didn't buy her million dollar house, nor the other house she owns with her winnings. I can't see her getting a mortgage for those two houses with no income, so what gives here? She must have been scamming the system before she ever won the lottery.

    Just a little info:

    Most US lottery prizes reflect the total value of an annuity that pays out over twenty to even as much as forty years.

    For about the last decade the lotteries have offered winners the option of taking the cash value of the annuity as opposed to having it paid out over time. In the case of the young lady in Michigan the cash value was reportedly about $750,000.00 and after state, Federal, and local income taxes she was left with about half of that amount or about $350,000.00 so the 'million dollar' lottery winner thing is not exactly accurate.

    She's still wrong, for sure, but she's not as rich as the media is making it sound mostly because 'million dollar lottery winner on welfare' sounds a lot better than the truth.
