Women who won’t work to support themselves should be forced to sell themselves for food.

I worked in a grocery store 50+ years ago. The people that paid from the food stamp book, bought cabbage/collards, a block of lard, a sack of flour, five pound bag of sugar, ham hocks... These people were really poor and would try to give me a quarter for loading it in the back of a rusted out truck.

I hated the fact that that was all they had.

I have been broke many times, but I have never been poor. These people didn't have any "niceties".

cute, but clearly nonsense.

Since we’re trading verses: “If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat.” ~ Thessalonians 3:10

Scripture commands Christians to help the genuinely needy. It does not command taxpayers to subsidize fraud while smug TD Moderates pretend noticing the abuse is somehow un-Christian.


also, fwiw. John 7:24 literally tells us to judge righteously. Try again.

Restaurants should not accept EBT to start with. Whenever I'm working in the field and see a corner store with the EBT/SNAP sign it just annoys the hell out of me. Just wasting my money.

We'd have people come in and buy the smallest red potato they could find for like a .05. Then they'd give us a $1 food stamp and we were required to give back any change less than a dollar back in actual currency. So theyd do this 3 or 4 times then buy a six pack with their newfound hoard of coins. Others would buy vanilla extract with their food stamps. Not because they were baking but because its got a pretty high alcohol content. So taxpayers werent buying any of them food they were paying for them to get drunk. And these were healthy adult people, not invalids or the elderly. And dont even get me started on the crab leg situation which only existed in stores that had a lot of welfare queens. Turns out people who have to actually pay for their groceries buy very few crab legs at the grocery store but the queens would stock up every month when they got their handout. And the whole getting into a Cadillac thing is based on reality. Saw them getting into nicer cars than anyone who worked there many times.

Honestly many people on these programs wouldn’t feel any remorse at all.

I suspect their view would be “You’re the sucker for not getting free shite.”


maybe now, but why is it called snap instead of food stamps or charity?


Because it made people feel bad.

The driver is at the end when she highlights how heartbroken I am that I don't qualify for EBT.

It's highly likely this sort of crap is done to generate clicks, but stuff like this does happen. I watched a very well dressed lady put her BMW key fob on the counter at the grocery, pull a wad of cash out of her purse that would choke a horse, then swipe an EBT card. I have never seriously considered slapping the shite out of a woman, except for this encounter.

Didn’t Landry do a whole bunch of reforms? No more junk food, sodas, etc.
