We were in a social situation, and at the same function was a "GibsmeDat" woman. Obese, loud, crude, profane, selfish, unkempt, and unswervingly prideful.
The Christian woman was having a conversation with her, because she was becoming increasingly concerned with the other woman's behavior. Finally, she had had enough. She confronted the woman about her life, and the other woman was incredibly indignant about being called out for being a slothful human sponge to the taxpayers.
I also discovered that it is never called "welfare" or by the specific name of the program (TANF, Section 8, etc). It is always called "Getting Help." The only exceptions are the Food Stamp program is called "The EBT" and ObamaPhones are called, well, ObamaPhones.
It was a joy to see the Christian woman (who is married, raised a family, works, pay taxes) confront the other woman. She certainly wasn't going to called a "Raycis!" by the other woman. But boy, was the other lady angry about being called out.
My county, 30,000 strong has 96% white, 1% black and 3% other. It also has 6000 on SNAP alone. This is US Census data and from Georgia SNAP data. In my experience I do not recall seeing a black person use an EBT card here, mostly just white people and maybe a few Hispanics.
What this tells me is that it is not contained to just one group. The government has accomplished a sea change in our basic population irrespective of race. Very very bad news.
