We are cutting pay and expenses for our soldiers, but we give freeloaders "food stamps" to buy drugs?

Impeach Obama! Get him the f%$k out of our White House. Replace him with a real American.

They buy cigs and booze too. Not sure why those cards work at ATM’s, that’s the question.

Probably just the tip of the iceberg... These are just the REALLY REALLY Dumba$$es who did it at the pot store...

Sadly, these programs have become nothing more than wealth transfer schemes... And everyone is in on it but REAL taxpayers...

What a blessing that Obama can manipulate American liberties to take money from hard-working Americans who earn it and need it for their families, and channel it to amoral pot heads in exchange for their votes.

The president has brought the country low.

Perhaps if they get stoned enough they might stumble into a job.

Giving welfare recipients cash that they can spend anything they want on is a great idea.

What could go wrong?

BTW : Dems say we must increase their food stamps because they are getting the munchies.

Anyone know the price difference between the once illegal and now legal prices? Is it less or more expensive now?

The debit cards used for food stamps have multiple purposes. One is food stamps and another is TANF which is a cash subsidy paid every month to welfare recipients.
