"Non-profit" rewards Octomom

Pretty interesting article.

First the world learned she already had six kids and lived in her mother's cramped three-bedroom house in Whittier, Calif., a suburb of Los Angeles.

Then came news she was unemployed, single and living on a combination of food stamps, disability payments, student loans and her mom's retirement checks - all while her mom's mortgage went unpaid for nearly a year.


And now, thanks to her 8 kids who are still alive, Angels in Waiting is rewarding this irresponsible individual with a free house and free round-the-clock childcare.

Meanwhile, average, poor citizens - as Octomom used to be - who got irresponsibly pregnant but at least only had one child, can barely make ends meet and there's no one to help them with round the clock child care.

I've never donated to Angels in Waiting, but if I had I'd demand my money back and I certainly won't be giving them anything now, either.
