"Funny you would quote Illinois not Arkansas." It is just typical of i-node. He was trying to bluff his way out.

FYI The link you cited is outdated as it doesn't include the recent additions which increased every one of those amounts. And as pointed out to CJ, had I used Arkansas as an example it would have furthered my argument since Arkansas' annual wage is far smaller than IL. The point is the same either way. A person can make 25-30K by staying at home (in some states, 36K) and watching Oprah. Plus, they lose other benefits by taking a more productive job. And they may make less by going to work at a min. wage job. So, the incentive is NOT to work, and to stay home watching Oprah. Just as I said.
