Have you noticed the Walmart's with the new entrance gates seem to be less busy than before?

Name brand foods basically wouldn't exist. Working middle class people are struggling just to eat these days. Only ghetto Shaneequa and trailer trash Nancy with 5 kids by different dads who are all in prison, can afford the pricey shite with their $2000/mo in SNAP benefits.

The rest of us buy Great Value and Clover Valley shite because, you know, we're basically working to provide food to Shaneequa and Nancy via our tax dollars.

And there I am, loading $300 worth of generic groceries into the back of a Kia Sportage to get Mrs. Axe and I through another couple of weeks, when, lo and behold, Nancy pulls up next to me in a brand new Dodge Challenger and four mixed kids jump out, screaming in excitement because mama just got a $12,000 tax refund so they're all getting new TVs and Xboxes. They're not worried about a new pair of Lebrons, because they stole those at the mall last week and security isn't allowed to intervene.


...I really wish I was making that up.

Calvin's Bocage Market in Baton Rouge doesn't take EBT cards and the store is very nice with fully-stocked shelves and awesome chicken salad.

Firstly, we are a rich country, and I have no problem with the EBT program and SNAP program for children who are citizens of this country.

I do, however, have a problem with the rampant abuse of the program.

Let's clean it up and take tax monies from democrat programs to feed the aggressive occupying population and send the UN a partial bill for that.

It would be so nice to go to a gas station and not have to drive around looking for a free pump because they left their shitboxes parked in front of the pump after getting $2.50 in gas and now they’re inside holding up the line getting lottery tickets and black and milds and their debit card won’t scan and they don’t give a flying frick about people behind them who have shite to do and places to go.

Sounds like you need to move to a better neighborhood.

Who am I kidding? You need to move to a better state.

It’s already happening. Walmart supercenters are losing up to $3 million a year in theft. You can thank these thieves for the partial raise in prices at all stores.

I think that people who are on assistance shouldn’t be allowed to have kids.

But back during 2020 I got behind a school bus when the schools were closed. I thought ‘What is this?’ Then it stopped, turned the lights on, and a whole pack of youths came running out of the house to the bus to get their ‘free’ food.

Trained to look at government as the parental figure.

And I wondered: How many of these kids will actually ever amount to anything?

Nope. Don’t own a canary yellow sweater. Don’t own a sweater period.
