I can't get that woman from Ohio who was sent to jail about the school stuff out of my mind.
ESPECIALLY after I read about her living in subsidized housing.
I know a lot of folks are going to jump to the conclusion that she is trying to get over on the system from all angles but I just don't see it like that.
I was thinking about the criteria for qualifying for subsidized housing out here.
You have to make less than 40% of the median income.
The median income is $91,440 as of 2008 stats.
That means...someone is making about $38,000 a year in order to qualify.
If they make $39,000...they're azzed out.
If they make $39,000 they don't even meet the INCOME requirements of a lot of apartments in the area.
So...they have to live somewhere else ANYWAY.
I know I'm not the only one who can't stop thinking about her situation.
What say YOU?
