So people get food stamps and sell them and then don’t eat food all month and don’t feed their kids. I get it now. What a lucrative income generator. $150 cash for $300 in EBT.

Yes this is what they do, for booze and cig money. These people aren't worried about their P/L statements or their kids.

You really are to much of a naive privileged NW White woman to get into these conversations.

Or we could stop giving the money to Israel and every other country in the world and easily fund the program.

I had a great plan on this but mfering politics stopped it. If only they had to reimburse the government for the birth cost of all those bastards. I had a big beautiful plan that would do exactly that and political bs stopped it.

When I filed the case and had it sealed as was the agreement with the state, the judge actually asked to speak me. He said it was the most interesting and potentially game changing complaint he had read and then proceeded to ask me questions about it for 30 minutes. The state was actually going to confess the suit but renigged at last minute and we got thrown out on a technicality we weren’t prepared for because we thought we had an agreement. The mfer that betrayed us was later indicted and plead guilty to fraud etc and I think is in prison.

If you want to stop this shite and have a state not filled with back stabbing pos mfers hit me up privately

American politicians created a dependency on big government. If Americans can learn how to survive on their own. Country will be further along.

Do you have kids? Do you have any idea how much SNAP benefits people are eligible for? Obviously not if you think someone would have a kid just to get $350/month in food stamps. As if food is the only thing kids require.


That's just the tip of the iceberg. My wife was a school secretary - anyone who qualified for SNAP got a ton of other benefits - they didn't have to pay for field trips, free lunch, free instrument rentals, a bunch of stuff other parents had to pay for.

And then there are deals on utilities, rent, and on and on.

I'm in the camp: If you have a kid you can't afford, you go on birth control until you get your life in shape, and pay back everything you were given, with interest. Including the cost of birth control. Or you don't get any freebies. Oh, drug and alc testing as well. And no tattoos, etc.

The poli hoard would rather fund hell than anything that could potentially benefit a poor person.

Charities, churches, and family should help people, not the government.

You should man up and provide for your grandkids.

But you're probably getting handouts too.

Obviously didn't teach her how to avoid deadbeats.

You do know that SNAP benefits are one of MANY subsidized benefits for most of these people right?

You should also understand that most conservative aren’t against SNAP benefits for people who really need them, but the government does nothing to vet the millions of people who don’t give any effort to not suckle on the gov tit.

Sell the house. She and the kids move in with you. Daughter works to make up income of your wife. Wife stays home and tends house and kids. Good plan.

I wish I could, without adding any debt, my bills have gone up almost 10% monthly (mainly groceries amd insurance) in the last few years. Income hasn't increased that much. Discretionary spending is alot more but doesn't go nearly as far as it used to. (Gas, clothes, entertainment, travel,etc)
