$50,540 based on a family of 3 ( mother & two children , ages 1 & 4 ).
They get $7,416 in cash (TANF, it’s called, and that’s the free money on the EBT cards). They collect $6,247 in food stamps, approximately $9,900 in Medicaid (Mass Health), another $979 in WIC (women and infant children), $450 in heating oil, $17,203 in public housing (Section 8) and finally, $300 in free cheese, milk and eggs. - See more at: Carr: Mass. earns distinction as freeloaders’ paradise | Boston Herald

Massachusetts is ridiculous. Republicans electing former Mass. Governor Willard Mittens Romney as their candidate was almost as stupid as McCain choosing Palin. They didn't stand a chance.

From the article you linked:
The average monthly SNAP (food stamps) benefit is $237 per household … and the average cash benefit is $456, going largely to individuals who are elderly, disabled, children or pregnant mothers in need of assistance.”
Man I hate poor old people.... and disabled people, and children and pregnant women. What a bunch of freeloaders.
Do some research man. Massachusetts is not Mississippi. The location effects the amount of money they get, just think about it, why do you think DC Hawaii and Mass. are at the top of the list? Do you really believe it's because Obama lived there? Really? Then why'd you try and make the connection?
Living wage in Massachusetts: $31.74 (1 adult w 2 children) ...... $66,025
You said they're getting how much again? Those damn disabled freeloaders, what a bunch of crooks.

75 Percent Of Jobs Created This Year Were Part-Time Due To Weak Economy, Obamacare Concerns
WASHINGTON, Aug 21 (Reuters) - U.S. businesses are hiring at a robust rate. The only problem is that three out of four
of the nearly 1 million hires this year are part-time and many of the jobs are low-paid.
Faltering economic growth at home and abroad and concern that President Barack Obama's signature health care law will
drive up business costs are behind the wariness about taking on full-time staff, executives at staffing and payroll firms say.
75 Percent Of Jobs Created This Year Were Part-Time Due To Weak Economy, Obamacare Concerns
The chart went to January 2012.
It should also be noted that the greatest job loss has been in the Public sector, which is due entirely to the recklessness of the American Taliban, AKA, the Tea Party.
Can you rep me below 0?

You're wasting your time unless you link to an article from Fox News.

Not so. The average in MA is about $30k/yr and the cost of living is 50% higher than the US average. Most welfare households are headed by a woman with a child under the age of 5.
The truth just ain't in you.

Massachusetts the Total Potential Welfare Benefit = $42,515
the Equivalent Pretax Wage = $50,540
Work or Welfare: What Pays More? - Real Time Economics - WSJ
and that is a 2013 study. Your link referred to a 1995 Cato report.

Potential, not actual. I got my figures from the MA website and here: Welfare Statistics | Statistic Brain
By the way, since your reading comprehension isn't so hot, here is the first paragraph to the article I posted debunking. Highlights are mine:
The Cato Institute is out with an update to their 1995 study which purports to show that, in most states, welfare pays better than work.

Your study still couldn't debunk the Cato study. It was biased and still couldn't disprove the Cato numbers.
