Never mind. It looks like SNAP is “Federal food dollar bills” and EBT is the “debit card version” of the same thing. If no SNAP dollars are allocated, you have no money in your EBT card.

OK, everybody prep for roaming band of “the dependency class” and protect yourselves.

Crime will go up for sure.

All this is to scare spineless Reps into caving. Obama wants civil way in the streets, gives him his national emergency so he can call Martial law, seize and retain power. Call off elections.

I can’t wait to see the results.

There will be an absolute bloodletting riot.

All of the lobbyists for Ralph’s, Krogers, A&P, Albertsons, Giant Eagle, Walmart, Kraft, Hormel, Del Monte, Starkist, Campbells, etc. etc., all descending on Capitol Hill in a blood-curdling rage.

How do you expect to have an economy when you can’t sell to people who don’t have any money?

[butterdezillion]

So Obama, who alone has the discretion to do so, has decided that food stamps are “non-essential services”?

Quick, let’s make sure the media reports this!!

[The Mayor]

They are hell bent on starting riots and full all out class warfare.

[Lockbar]

Thank God for rifled slugs

All you EBT people - go to the White House. I really doubt that Obama will stop delivery on all that luxury food. Talk about the mother of all EBT cards!

[LyinLibs]

Will AL-QAEDA still receive ObamaGuns from McCain and the Obamatollah Barrany?

[popdonnelly]

The White House won’t compromise. Nobody can tell me they care about the American public.

[central_va]

The price of steak, lobster, shrimp and bacon to plummet....

[Mr. K]

Let the rioting begin

I’m ready

[Jack Black]

CWII Ping.

See Matt Bracken's prophetic article Will Obama stop the music this November?

Many have predicted that turning off the EBT card would be the start of serious violent rioting in the USA, possibly a precursor to CWII. Thus, the ping.

Benghazi Barry and Valerie Jarrett sure love messing with our upcoming holidays, don’t they?

[Boogieman]

A HUD property we managed received noticed that Federal housing subsidies might not be paid on time either, but there was no end date, it was just a scare letter.

[ßuddaßudd]

Good news!
but I seriesly doubt they will do it.

[bgill]

OTOH, Obamaphones will still be working.

This is obviously another ploy. Women and children hurt worse. But, but the poor widdle children are starving and it’s those mean GOPs’ fault!!!

"several States provide the next month's issuance files as early as the 15th of the month...

...we are directing States to hold their November issuance files and delay transmission to State (EBT) vendors until further notice"

Ok, what are the chances that the 17 states affected in Saturday's EBT shut down are the States that provide the next month's issuance files as early as the 15th of the month.
