On the other hand, there is a nine-year old girl in the area that is always discussing recipes with my wife...go figure.
Your granddaughter is encouraged to cook by her family. If there is no encouragement, children won’t learn.
Ramen isn’t bad with a sandwich and a few fresh vegetables chop into it. Sigh...
Welcome!!
I wouldn’t say so much “encouraged” as “allowed to”....she picked up the urge all by herself.
Tariffs and jobs are much better than Free Trade and Socialism...and seems the more Free Trade the more Socialism
But Barack Obama has been President for 5 years,this is obviously Republican propaganda.
That’s per week, not per month.
That will happen, more money will be printed.
Problem is that Obama has been killing jobs off.
Where did your numbers come from? A 5.5% cut out of $187 is $10.29, not $36. I don’t see any specific numbers on handouts being cut anywhere in the article.
Hubby gets sodomized every week with matriarchy support to his ex-shrew. He earns 33K gross annually and has to pay $1K monthly after taxes non arrears “child” support to her although she is remarried to a six figure guy and makes 42K a year herself (good ol’ NYS) He’s got 10 years down and 10 years to go (CS goes to 21 here manadatory—sometimes longer which I’m anticipating as she works for Child Protective and knows “the system.”)
So on mostly my income (mid 40s) I buy flour in bulk, make our own bread and baked goods, have a 30 x 30’ raised bed garden and several cold frames, can, dry and freeze produce, shop for clothes maybe once a year at the goodwill, eat out maybe once a year if that, (usually around Christmas) we burn wood (free dead trees on property) for heat exclusively. I’m desirous of a wind mill to do net metering, but hubby is not convinced. . .yet. Anything household wise I buy at the dollar store or on line with free shipping and no taxes of course. We do ALL our own repairs and remodeling on house and vehicles (all beaters year 2000 and older) The only real debt we have is the 15 yr mortgage.
Riots always begin typically the same way’: food stamp shutdown looms Friday
what a bizzarro heading..
always begin typically...okay which is it...
do they always begin that way OR typically begin
always typically is like definitely maybe...
IMHO...
Don’t forget “ Drank”
Queue the racism charges for not funding due to the sequester imposed on the poor by the GOP.
I believe that this article was written by someone who blindly believes every single leftist lie told them, no matter how illogical.
I do not know how anyone can claim, with a straight face, that a dollar of food stamps is somehow worth $1.70 in the economy. No matter how I try to figure out the factual basis of such a statement, the premise is so utterly illogical that I cannot do it. The reality is that each food stamp dollar represents a much larger amount of money taken out of the productive sector, and is the small (30%? I forget exactly) amount left over after it gets laundered through the bureaucracy.
In response to a statement by the editor of The Weekly Standard that charities will step in: While some “have had this way of romanticizing charity,” she said, “charity is also a system that is based on capacity and resources.”
Various studies have shown that the more redistributionist a country's policies become, the fewer people donate to charity. They develop the attitude that "government will take care of it" and stop giving; this is one reason the huge charity gap exists between liberals and conservatives. Furthermore, when charities step in to help, there is much less chance of fraud, since the charities actually work with the people they are assisting and are in a much better position to detect fraud. Plus, the people receiving the assistance are much more aware that real people are giving of their own personal labor and resources to help them, so are less likely to try to game the system for all it's worth--when "the government" is the source of their assistance, they really do believe that there is a bottomless pot of free money and they want as much of it for themselves as possible.
“Many of those on welfare and/or on food stamps are probably too lazy to riot.”
You are too kind, I was thinking too fat
“Did you ever hear of a riot that start by something that made sense?”
A hard lesson for our side. While we’re arguing fine points of rationality, the fighting begins by some loon doing something stupid - something I term “the nuts move first”.
