Me and the girlfriend did. We even got a voucher to pay our rent.

It really helped while while working 30 hours a week making minimum wage.

After I got my A.A.S. I got a job and lost the benefits. Since then I've been paying back in and taken care of myself.

That's the way it's supposed to work.

Welfare is not a way of life. I don't see how folks pride lets them live on welfare after their early to mid 20's.

Why was it my responsibility to help you get an education? I worked full time and went to school part time to get mine. Why couldn't you do the same?

It is supposed to help those in need, not those in want. I have no problem helping someone that is down, but when you are down for 30 years, it's time to suck it up and work.

That is not what welfare is for. Not even remotely. You took advantage of a piss poor system to get the taxpayer to pay for your shite while you went to school. frick you you lazy scum.

You used the system and resources available to better yourself.

Nothing wrong with that .

Did you lie and say that you purchased and prepared your meals separately so that you could both have separate SNAP benefits?

Hey dipshit, I've been a poor student too. The lowest point for me was when I had to return bread and chips to the grocery store because I didn't have a damn dime.

Never once thought about getting on welfare.

What an absolute POS

And that's the way it does work, at least for the vast majority. A high majority of those on food stamps are on it only temporarily . I agree that lifelong food stamp recipients who do not have a legitimate disability need to be stopped .

By the way, awesome for you .

I have no problem helping someone that is trying to better themselves. The asswipes running you down are fricking dimwitted trash.

I worked my arse off waiting tables and bartending, while taking 18 hours at one point. It sucked arse, but I did it. I put myself in that position and dug myself out....no reason others can't do the same.
