There should be government run stores for welfare recipients. Basic staples and that’s it. Cheese rice flower. Make those frickers bake and shite.

At least those Walmart employees are getting off the couch and down from the porch to go to work every day. Part-timers even are better than those who sit on their arse and do nothing all the time.


That is why we need to incentivize welfare to where it gives more for doing better for themselves instead of just kicking them off once they make X.

So in other words someone that has no income will get less benefits than someone that is working.

I try to refrain from making snap judgements but the few times I've ventured into a wal-mart in my adult life, quite a bit of poor decision making was on display. That extended to a variety of demographics.

The people with carts of cola are selling the drinks to gas stations to convert the EBT to cash.

especially since we know kids will be consuming that poison
Sugary drinks like Coke and Pepsi have been around for 150-200 years now. Before the water supply was "safely" fluoridated and chlorinated, people drank fruit juices and alcohol or sweetened drinks individually (like tea). Stuff just as calorie laden as anything today, or more so.

Sugar is simply not a poison. Preach your religion elsewhere.

not so much High Schoolers.

my son is looking for a part time gig somewhere, but can’t stock shelves at Walmart because he’s under 18 so they don’t allow him to use a box cutter.

That's every freaking grocery store, not just WallyWorld. It is also meant to subsidize agriculture.

Anyway, I’m guessing today was payday for Louisiana Purchase Card holders


Slipped by Sam's around 3pm and it was a madhouse as well. Grabbed my 5 things, checked out with the app, skipped the lines, and got out.

I can understand your concerns about all those Latinos in our country. Perhaps laws can be passed that could limit the amount of nonwhites that could gather at specific locations. Would you go back to the Baton Rouge firework show if a law like that was enacted?
