the dumb thing about these gov help programs is it's like they want you to fail and be indigent so that you're solely dependent on them. if you try and work part time and not be such a drag on their finances, they pronounce you "fine". but then, by not helping you, they end up driving you to a breakdown, wherein you will be totally dependent on the state. it's not like we don't want to work or be productive. we just can't all the time because stress levels can provoke an episode, then we're in the hospital costing them more money in the long run. blah. you can't win either way.
