The gvt is working hard to replace the name “food stamps” with the name SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program). It will always be food stamps to me.

I consider Supplemental Nutrition Assistance to be a seventh beer in a six pack. Do I qualify?

Yeah, me too. I hated those darned things when I was growing up. I see the value in them now for folks in TEMPORARY need, but where I came from, this was a generational requirement. Mothers would pass down to daughters how to game the systems. Mama’s boyfriends would do the same for the sons. Everyone had a roof over their head, food in their belly and gas in the tank, but no one had a damned job. Why work when you can get buy on the government.
