Don’t mix words like a coy dumbass.

Am I or am I not forced to pay taxes by the federal government? And what happens if I don’t do this?

You know exactly what I mean. Money taken by force.

Guarantee they live in an upper middle class white HOA neighborhood and have a “in this house we believe…” sign

My liberal neighbor had cups of ramen noodles to give out to the “starving” fat asses who drive their spawn to trick or treat in my neighborhood.

I locked the doors, turned out the lights, and went out to eat so I wouldn’t have to deal with them this year.

I’ll have to get the scoop on the number of noodle cups they still have.

Well then they should go to an impoverished section of town and offer to write a check for someone’s groceries.
Should their home be burglarized, remind them that they were just helping in these unprecedented times.

True but the virtue signalers doing this likely live in areas where SNAP recipients don’t trick or treat. So it’s a meaningless gesture for social media attention

Also, they're doing it to be seen, not to feed the hungry. If their motives were pure they would have just donated to the local food bank and not announced it to the world.

You are in a position to provide for your family because you try. You should realize that those that do not try will take away your ability to provide for your family. It has happened over and over in history. Great empires have crumbled over the same ideals


Welfare should only be for elderly, truly disabled or mentally challenged. If you are able bodied you don’t work you don’t eat. Special exceptions in the event of a natural disaster or economic collapse like the Great Depression. It should only help those who cannot help themselves or those truly in need due to circumstances they cannot control. Not people who could work but choose to sit on their arse smoking weed drinking tall boys every day

A whole lot of oblivious people are about to figure out that most people on SNAP don't actually need any assistance.

because there will always be an impoverished class. personally i'm 100% fine helping those folks get fed, housed, etc. is it ripe with corruption? of course, same as any program that distributes billions of dollars
how about being grateful that you're in a position to be able to provide for your family vs. bitching about how your taxes might go to help someone


Giving folks free shite isn't helping them. If the Dems truly cared about their voter base, they would be fighting for funds for job training and making eligibility for
government assistance dependant upon recipients attending those programs.

We've wasted trillions on the welfare programs and have nothing to show for it. Its created a class of folks who are broken, dysfunctional, and ungrateful.

I’d be okay with it if they actually made sure it went to people in need who were trying. My ex had three kids and was in school. She had benefits but now she makes six figures. She’s a rare case though

America was built on

You don’t work you don’t eat.

We need to go back. Snap benefits for people who work. Only exception is if someone is disabled.

You donate to a church or soup kitchen or directly to a needy family.

You don’t draw a sign and put a box of food outside your house.

110% performative. If you really wanna serve the needys thats not an efficient way to do it. It is a great way to get attention though
