Aren’t there supposed to be big foodstamp riots going on because the dollar amount per individual went down this month?
Their cards were electronicaly replenished, wait until the time period just before Thanksgiving, but most certainly by the end of the month. IMHO...
I had to do my big, every-other-month, shopping in the nearest city on Nov. 2. I went to 4 stores, one a church thrift, Aldi’s, Sam’s and the local large employee-owned store.
I was shopping from 12:30-3pm. By 12:30, it already looked as though the locusts had blown through. Shelves were half full. Every place was jammed, parking was difficult to find.
One-third of all recipients of SS and EBT had just been replenished. I normally do this chore on a Saturday and it was way busier than I have ever experienced.
