Reviews for "Welfare Queens"

Ole scool!

This one really looked like a 1930 documentary!
And its filesize is only 818 kb!
It is an amazing job for so little space!
Hope you do more!

toxicwes responds:

yes, i take pride in the size of my files. ;)

thanks for the kind words!

nicely done

this made me lol

love how you made out welfare queens to be communists

The problem's in execution

Hmm, animation was good, but I feel like you should put more research into your msg. Show us the facts. Also, I would've liked to have heard what YOU wanted us to spend tax money on. Voice sounded like it didn't fit for some reason...

Social security systems are corrupted at the bureaucratic level, which results in a bad image and deserving people being left out to dry.

Although I'm against mandatory charity, welfare IS good and moral. But, in order for it to mean anything, the bureaucracy needs to be overhauled.

Disability and elderly entitlements are understandable, and a very temporary unemployment program, perhaps one which changes length in accordance with our economy could be acceptable.

However, oversight of both the recipients' actions and the bureaucracy which is supposed to watch them is very necessary.

Well...

Politics and social issues on Newgrounds? No...it can't be D: Surreal > Serious

As for the flash itself:
Good animation with a nice retro style to it. Only thing that took away from it was the sometimes uneven narration.

Andrew Ryan would be proud.

As would Ayn Rand for that matter.

Clean animation, good voice work, overall not too shabby. A good social commentary cartoon is always enjoyable to watch, it lets me know that I'm not the only one who realizes some of these things. Though the popcorn bombs threw me for a loop.
