Mr Snyder, try to learn to think and write in whole paragraphs instead of in single sloganeering sentences. That said, your outrage is justified, but listen up for a sec.
I’ve gotten these ads in the mail on Tuesdays when the ad circulars come, and here is what I noticed about the offer, and what I perceive as the real outrage. I’ve thrown out this trash so I cannot provide the full evidence, but here it is from memory. In order to qualify for this program you have to be a recipient of one or more of about 20 government programs, all listed in the ad, and that for me is the outrage, programs most of us don’t realize exist and chew up billions of our tax dollars, while we are screaming now about just one of them.
A few weeks ago, someone posted an article about the number of people that were on food stamps.
So...I thought I'd see how easy it is/was to get food stamps and logged onto the program to do so. Soon, it was obvious I wasn't anywhere near qualified (which I knew before hand), anyway, the qualifications were higher than I had expected.
Now the suprising part... a couple days later, I started get solicited (spammed) by the government that if I was eligible for food stamps that I was probably eligible for: (a list of other programs, click here)...no kidding!!
