Oh wait...............Obama killed jobs.
They may have to buy day old lobster.
>>>Food stamps - actually the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program - go to 47 million Americans a month, almost half of them children and teenagers.<<<
In other words, MORE THAN HALF of them go to ADULTS.
They may have to buy their drugs from a different dealer. She might have to ask "the daddy" for milk money...
Okay....for the 6,891st. time....the reason you DON’T do “TEMPORARY” hikes in benefit programs is because...
What’s the big deal? They can just go to any local school and 3 meals a day... FREE!
The raise they got in their food stamp money was part of a stimulus package. It was temporary. Guess they’ll have to give up a couple trips to the casinos....where they accept their little charge cards.
get a job you evil, lazy, socialist welfare leeches. these welfare scum are all scum
eliminate all welfare and 99% of the government
it’s not needed
So now our poor here in America will starve. I haven’t seen too many famished poor people in America unless it is at the hand of delinquent parents.
In fact, you can buy food stamps at $.50/$1.00 on the black market exchange. And that exchange is set up by poor people. Why? Because they get more than they need or can use. They turn food stamps into I-pods, computers, TVs and automobiles.
>>>Danielle Walker, 37, was shopping at a discount Aldi store in Morgantown, W.Va., with what little cash she had, the end of September still three days away. Her food stamps had run out because of a previous cut from $500 to $61 a month that came about when the father of her 12-year-old son died, giving the boy survivor benefits that changed the family’s income level.<<<
So she is complaining that when she got additional undeserved benefits from one taxpayer ripoff scheme, her benefits from another were reduced by a smaller amount?
>>>One recipient, Jennifer Donald, a 31-year-old mother of three in Philadelphia, said she counts on the family’s $460 monthly benefit to put food on the table. Her husband has a job sanitizing machines at meat-packing plants but it doesn’t pay enough. She’ll have to reduce the quality of the food she buys to stretch the benefits, then turn to food pantries once the money runs out.
“I was mad and devastated and a little bit confused because we need our benefits,” Donald said in an interview at her row house, where she was preparing ground-beef tacos, a family favorite, while her 10-year-old daughter and two sons, 6 and 4, played and did homework. “This is the way we eat right now. Live a day in our life before you can cut our benefits.”<<<
Maybe you should consider GETTING A JOB like all the taxpayers you are leeching off of.

we’ve got so much free cheese , we have to export it to people trying to murder us!
How about instead of money for this program they hand out cheese and other foods rotting in govt warehouses?
Make this program have a stigma attached to it (as it should) and watch the numbers drop.
>>>>”When they cut my food stamps, they cut my pride in being a human being,” she said. “I go without a lot. Now I’ll go without more.”<<<
So this woman takes PRIDE in robbing hard working taxpayers, and her pride is wounded when she is asked to rob a bit less?
“Food stamps do not support a diabetic diet; doesn’t even come close,” she said. “I’m supposed to eat a lot of vegetables, some fruit, some carbs. Six ounces of meat per day isn’t a lot. I don’t have a big freezer. There are times I’m eating the same thing for a week.”
Food stamps are not supposed to provide for all of your dietary needs the “S” in SNAP stands for “supplementary”. I guess it is too much to ask these bums to provide for even a small portion of their own needs.
95% of the time when I am in a supermarket line behind somebody with their shopping cart stacked high with fresh shrimp, prime cuts of meat and premium frozen ready to microwave and eat meals, they are paying with an EBT card. And driving off in a car I can't afford. But I'm expected to subsidize them with my taxes.
Why do you suppose that is?
Lately I, I’ve been heading for a breakdown
Every time I leave my house
Well it feels just like a shake down
Between street sweepers and the pushers are the lawyers
Who may as well be butchers
Between the small timing hustlers who all, seem to feed upon each other
[Chorus]
Oh God why you been
Hanging out in that ol’ violin
While I’ve been waiting for you, to pull me through
Lately I, every time I try to lie down
Well my mind just gets away
I can’t even close my eyes now
Between the big fish ambition, and the lovers
Using words as ammunition
Between the wood planks I’ve been pacing endless
Impossible dream that I’ve been chasing
[Chorus]
JAIL time = ‘3 hots and a cot’
ain’t all bad.
