I guess the EBT shutdown over the weekend was a demonstration of what can be expected to happen.

Is this related to the Farm Bill where they reduced the increase (aka “cut” in DCese) in food stamp funds?

No, this was being funded by the $1 trillion annual infusion of invented money into the economy. So no tax savings.

Utah families on food stamps could be cut off soon
http://fox13now.com/2013/10/14/utah-families-on-food-stamps-could-be-cut-off-soon/
States across the country are being told to stop the supplemental nutrition assistance program for the month of November, pending further notice.
Thats according to a letter from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Fox 13 obtained a copy from the Crossroads Urban Center in downtown Salt Lake City. Crossroads says if Utah families dont get food stamps, theyll turn to the local food pantries, which are already strapped due to the government shutdown. Homeless people Fox 13 talked to, some who use SNAP, say losing food stamps would mean going hungry.

You’ll be able to spot the Blue States by just following the smoke plumes...
Threat of course, aimed at doing to the House what the threat of a global economic collapse did to Bush in 2007.
Same as your local school board does whenever the teachers union demands more money - threaten to cut high school football and band.
Thuggery.

I’m going to assume this is a joke. It’s like seeing a letter telling us a mile wide meteor is going to crash into the earth next month. It has to be a joke.

Good. Shut it down. The moocher base of the Democrat party will get so pissed they’ll never vote Republican again.

What is that supposed to mean ?
The “^” is an arrow pointing up to what is above the line. It means I agree with the comment above the line in a foundational way and am using my post to amplify it.
It’s pretty commonly used these days all over the internet.

The only thin ones are the ones whacked out on Meth or crack, who trade EBT cards and purchases for drugs.

If they get the funding are they still going to shut it down?

The temporary EBT shutdown and ensuing chaos followed by the release of this letter certainly raise suspicions of a coordinated attack.

Does that mean they won’t ship containers of EBT resources to Kenya anymore?

So America ‘feels the pain’ of the shutdown obviously.
They have money for barricades and riot cops but not one cop to watch people visit memorials?
It’s all a staged pinch so the MSM can direct anger to the GOP and distract people from how horrible Obamacare is.
To: repentant_pundit
USDA with no link is not exactly a source.The date stamped on the letter looks very suspect. If it was an official document, the date would have been typed on the letter.
