Jessica Bartholow Legislative Advocate and anonymous Calworks recipient join the show to discuss Calworks
Legislative advocate, Jessica Bartholow of The Western Center on Law and Poverty and a local woman who recently became a Calworks recipient join the show to discuss the realities versus the fallacies of the Calworks program. In this interview we address many issues from recent cuts to Calworks statistics. Our anonymous guest also shares her own story, which resonates with many of the stories that we have read about- putting a voice and personal experience to the truths that so many refuse to acknowledge: which is that poverty can happen to anyone. Most Americans are just one perhaps a few paychecks from economic collapse; during this economic downturn there have been many middle class Americans who have lost their homes, who at one time were doing well, living the American dream- yet now they are faced with challenges both economic and personal challenges due to the loss of "The American Dream" but more so due to the stigmatization that is placed upon them by society. In a time when so many struggle it deeply saddens and worries me, when I hear so many Americans on the radio, on TV, online and in day to day conversations who lack empathy; who appear to be somehow envious of the little assistance that Welfare to Work recipients receive, and who cite misinformation. During this interview we address the realities of the program, the work requirements and most importantly our anonymous guest shares her own personal experience with stigmatization along with her story.
Again many thanks to both Jessica Bartholow and to our anonymous guest, who bravely shared her story with us today.

Thank you to all my listeners
I'd like to thank all my listeners across the world! It is a pleasure to know that even now there are still so many viewers/listeners and now readers world wide! It is an honor to be have such a devoted and loyal audience. I am pleased to announce that I will begin blogging and I am looking forward to beginning a brand new theme and dynamic for the future of the Michelle Jackson Show. I am researching different ways to move forward and pick up where I left off! I plan on beginning with posting a new blog every Friday and in the upcoming months expanding into something that I'm really excited and looking forward to trying: video streaming! I'm looking forward to reconnecting with my listeners and my callers along with guests and more! I'm still testing and researching methods for streaming and receiving calls so stay tuned for updates! Edgar leads our team of custom application developers and has not only convinced me that some tech is welcome (necessary!), but also is helping me create some tools that will make life easier as well as permit me to post more frequently. Software tools rock!
Irregardless my message will remain: seeking truth, uncovering deceit and as always I encourage everyone... No I oblige everyone to "Think for Yourself" remember most "facts" do tend to be stained with opinion- don't be influenced- influence and keep up the good fight!
As 2016 encroaches upon us, it is more important than ever to stay informed! As many have realized our democracy, our freedom and well basically everything that this country was founded on... All the things that America once represented are gradually being compromised! It is up to each and every citizen of the United States and truly the world to take action. Complacency is becoming the norm, people are or have lost hope in politics, the economy and sadly themselves. The recession while on the mend will have long lasting scars... people lost jobs, homes and what many don't consider is that along that road there are those who lost their sense of pride, dignity, confidence and their sense of self. While the FOX News team clung on to their compromised self righteous and morally devoid talking points which typically were aimed at denying food to the hungry and healthcare to sick; there were people who could not lift themselves up by their bootstraps... those who lost jobs... those who weren't so fortunate. They heard the smears, they felt the stares of envy or disgust from Foxbots who felt that subsidies aka welfare is only for corporations not people!
Oh the hypocrisy... if only they could use Mitt Romney's father as a welfare poster child... but they didn't. There should not be shame in ensuring your family- especially children do not suffer hunger, homelessness or poverty... and then they try to affiliate the greed, the sin, the hate with religion? This election season- I ask that every listener/ reader takes my challenge: Please consider and examine your faith, then look closely at the parties. I'm not singling out the Republicans, however since they do claim to be the party of faith, alleging Christian values and using churches and ministers to gain votes and of course implement their agenda. Please consider this: the GOP focused as did their marketers... I mean media or "news" networks fixated on cutting programs to the poor, while giving breaks, cuts and subsidies to the wealthy; they waged a never ending attempt to end the Affordable Care Act, which would literally deny health care to the sick- literally; the GOP was also instrumental in cutting food programs to the poor, the elderly, the disable and worst of all children. I was raised as a Catholic, and while I may not bring up religion very often, and usually don't even state any religious preference... I must say that I feel the need to address this heinous blasphemy. I ask that this truth be spread and shared because it is beyond wrong for these completely unchristian acts to continue under the guise of faith.
The deceit should be uncovered and Christianity, faith, churches, ministers, preachers and all Christians. It is just plain wrong- and as the election engine rolls forward Religion will be at the forefront and emotions will be the tool which they will rely on and use to once again lay claim to Christianity- each year the talking points begin and end with a heated battle that no one really wants to win: The abortion spectacle. A topic so emotionally driven that the mention of the word negates every other topic. Suddenly, the question what would Jesus do in regards to feeding the hungry or healing the sick becomes irrelevant, as once this topic is brought up life... lives are at stack. Now I'm going to say this: I am definitely pro life... However, I vote pro choice despite my own personal beliefs and my opinions. I can't even imagine thinking about it... let alone- that said I want to elaborate on why I don't vote with my beliefs and or ideology.
