    Paul R. LePage Retweeted The White House

    Under my administration, Maine's experienced the benefits of Welfare Reform. We need everyone who can work to do so & we must focus on what each person CAN do, not what they can't. Reforming welfare is the right thing to do for our state & nation. Thank you @realDonaldTrumphttps://twitter.com/WhiteHouse/status/984067799332065282 …

        Hey guess what? If wages were better in Maine (minimum wage included), less people would be need to be on welfare. But I guess after 7+ years doing nothing to improve worker's situations, you still can't figure that out.

        This logic, that poor people don’t already work, is based in some BS fallacy. Plenty of people work full-time and cannot earn their way out of chronic poverty. This tweet perpetuates the myth of hoards of able bodied people avoiding work b/c they’re lazy.

        Good man, Paul! Make all those Welfare bums work! Throw them off their wheelchairs and beds, lock any kids in the house, find them jobs cleaning shitters in public buildings or picking up trash on roads! If they croak, no problem. Send out the “Body Trucks” and scrape them up.

        Not everyone who's on pain management becomes a street drug user. Yes you are causing more people to use street drugs then people who have pain management. You'll disappear after this you'll never get another political seat so hope Marden's is hiring
