The Democrats, and Town hall complaints

It seems like every time the democrats have a town hall meeting now-a-days, there is some person who gets up to complain about how bad their lives are.
Yet, when they are investigated by the press, we find out that they aren't as bad off as they claim.

Enter Henrietta Hughes, a woman who complained during Obama's town hall about how she couldn't make expenses.
Are we really surprised to find out that she wasn't as bad off as she made things out to be?
State Representative Nick Thompson and his wife Chene are standing by the Henrietta and her son, Corey. They spoke out against the allegations Henrietta is milking the system, even when confronted with the fact WINK News found out the Hughes' sold property, back in 2005. Henrietta and her son sold the land for $47,000 dollars. But Chene Thompson says that was all the money they had for several years and it's gone.

Okay... if you go through 47k in 4 years, beyond your normal $800 a month income, you're doing something wrong. I say that as a guy who has lived on less then $20k a year.
What's she spending her money on?
Hughes owes money on a loan, has her car insurance payment, a monthly storage bill and says she couldn't afford the rent.

So she not only owns a car (my guess is that's where the 47k went), but she has a storage facility. But she can't afford rent???
Folks; this is where the world has gone wrong. People who don't know how to prioritize. She's storing stuff, but can't afford her rent.
I don't know what she's storing... but if she sold some of it, she might have rent. It drives me crazy when people do this.
