Not only does Google AdSense pay badly, it can wreck your unemployment benefits. The State of New York cut one woman's benefit checks and told her running the ads was "self employment." AdSense earned her $1.30 per day. [TechDirt] (Pic)

The Sate of New York is currently collecting child support from my renter for kids that are not his and that he hasn't seen in years. Just this month they took his VA disability, which is suppsoed to be untouchable, because the VA flagged it as retirement. They also take half of his paycheck every week. I are scared of teh government.
