Huh?

my only concern is seniors and disabled with no family.

Ya think?

This must always be priority one, with no objection ever from me or any other working non-government net taxpayers.
An EBT priority system is long overdue...

20% of the households in this nation receive food stamps.

20%

1 out of 5.

I’ll bet they are all Trump supporters.

Obola has to manufacture riots in order to declare martial law, and ending the free money will do it.

Those families are no longer getting those free taxpayer-funded lunches and breakfasts in school for their children.

In my town, they can go to any park in town for a taxpayer-funded lunch every day from when school gets out in May, to when it starts again in August.

Also, there are many food banks in the area who will give out emergency portions to anyone who asks. Trust me, I've been to the RoadRunner Food Bank in Albuquerque. It's bigger than the Cotstco, and full of food. Ain't nobody going to starve to death in New Mehico.

The “adults” in those places could have been pooling dollars, or collecting bottles to return, and putting that money in a pool to then go out to Costco or Sams’s Club and buying lots of canned goods and cereal, in anticipation of school getting out.

Then the ones that obviously aren’t working could create daily meals for the kids. Those kids could help “work” for that meal by doing chores for the most disabled and elderly.

But ideas like that are too old school.

This is a concern because when the US Government has payment failures, then there is possibly something happening that the press is not telling you about.

The 'press' gets their story ideas in packets from Democrat Opposition Research Groups. They would NOT include this type of story.

I’ll bet booze and drug sales are really taking a hit.

...and Escalades, and cigarettes and lottery tickets and lobster and steaks, and trips to casinos, $300 shoes, custom wheels and tires, bling and...

There are 22,000,000 government employees in this nation according to CNS.

I’ll bet they are all Trump supporters, too.

More ammo. Everyone should have at least one long gun that will be less difficult to resupply ammo for i.e. the same sort of weapon the government will be using.

Huh?

They're both electronic, and can be taken down in a flash. When they want to cause riots and panic, that's what will happen. Nothing will work.

Isn’t it shocking that we now normally think something nefarious is going to be done by this government just about any time from now?

I do not believe in coincidence.
