If you are bitching online, you are not that hungry.

Do a google map search of "food bank michigan" and explain to me why she's sitting around and posting on social media about how she's starving.

You know how much beans and rice you can buy with say $20?
Enough probably to last easily 2 weeks if not much longer.
If your situation is so dire that you can't eat for 3 fricking days the instant your food stamps cease, methinks you aren't spending your food money wisely.

That wasnt my point. This bitch is probably just a whiner. It is just unseemly for people to just assume everyone on these programs is a system abuser. There is a shitton of waste and abuse in our fexeral govt, but the supplemental food assistance program isnt where I would direct my vitriol.

Agreed
Holy shite.
People can't seem to get a meal or two for their kids while SNAP is down? A loaf of bread, kraft singles, some ham, a bag of chips, and apples cost $15. Definitely worthy of a holy shite that they can even make it to the store to spend $15 to feed their kids.

Hell, that's five bucks at the Dollar Tree, minus the apples and the Kraft name.

If she can't come up with food for her kids for a few hours because a government website is down, she needs to give up her kids to a decent parent

I FINALLY got my food card money that was supposed to be on the 15th. My kids have been asking and it's so hard to come up with something to explain why we have no food! Live in Mississippi, we're all poor here, trust me! Then my husband passed away. different! I am a single mom that had a great paying job before hurricane Katrina. Whipped everything out here. Jobs are scarce, low minimum wage. I work, but just to make ends meet by myself. Utilities, rent, childcare. It's hard. I am embarrassed I have to get assistance at the moment, but I will get on my feet and if you need help in life eventually, I will gladly pay my taxes and have your back. Thank you tax payers for working and helping me in my struggle. I do have a job, some people don't know that when you struggle and try to make ends meet in the state of Mississippi you have to work a certain amount of hours in order to get benefits I am busting my butt to make ends meet, but not for long! I am going to move out of this poor, crap state!!!!!!

I can't wait for it all to go down here in October. I'm poor and live crappy paycheck to crappy paycheck myself but I'll be damned if I need someone else to pay for me for anything! I'm not a little kid nor elderly nor irresponsible single mom trash or wannabe realty tv cRap music babbling loser. Hell I could even survive without a job, as difficult as it was to do before. No food stamp loser can ever claim that in their make-believe world created by someone else. I think more fellow Americans should strongly consider working under the table and pay NO TAXES. Come on you big business lunatics! You people sure weren't scared to higher all those stupid immigrants you never had to be held legally responsible for, so why no higher American and get out of your stagnation and downward trend?

My card works today. When I check into the Chase JP Morgan site like I always have it says it's the wrong website now. When I call into on the old phone system, which seems to available now, the balance is correct. However when I ask for the last 10 transactions it keeps repeating Lowes $22.over and over. Now you know I can't spend this at Lowes. How in the world did Lowes get in there. So I cannot find the real last 10 transactions. Is there a new website? Is there a time frame on this issue? Thanks (edit: I can't believe people are using this place to bring up politics. smh)

Welfare only uses a very small % of the national budget. The military uses about 60% or less. There is so much deception in the USA!!

National security is the first priority of the US Government. So Defense should be the most. We should be spending more actually. We have a few countries feeling froggy right now (NK, Iran, Russia). We must rebuild our Military that Obama destroyed now. You want peace, prepare for war.

Yes the US Government will fund proxy wars all over the world for what is best for the US interest. However I do not think that will be the case between the three I listed above. The three above are a Nuclear threat to the US and our allies.

Do you want to know why your employee benefits were cut ?
1. Obamacare cost businesses too much money
2. They cut hours to keep you at part time
3. Cut pay and hire more part time workers because of all government mandated bullsh*t combined
4. Raising minimum wage wont help you. Staff will be cut and replaced with automated workers.(already happening)
Try working for yourself. You pay all your health insurance, SS, Medicare, and then state and federal income tax.

If people can't make it a few fricking days because the EBT is down then they have bigger problems than the EBT going down. I could not shop for two weeks and feed my family starting today.

One of her kids is special needs, so it is tough but she picks up every extra shift she can. I am all for providing some help for people like that.
Literally nobody has problems with people like that getting some help. Using this outlier doesn't help your argument.
Too many of us that actually contribute go shopping and see the leaches just draining the system.

Nothing like poor people having 4 kids then complaining how if they don't get help from the government then they can't feed their kids because they are poor.

She has Internet computer or data on phone which is a personal choice.
Give up Internet or phone service that's got to be $60 a month. 4lbs of ham 2 packs of cheese and 2 loafs of bread. You can feed you and the childrens for over a week
