You post on this forum, yet spew the control nature of the left. Food stamps is the least of our worries in this country right now. Some of you who are so judgmental about what people can and can’t buy - may someday find yourself in need. Don’t we have enough of big brother without the posters on here chiming in with the left?

For a growing percentage of the population, welfare isn't a temporary safety net, it's a permanent way of life. Qualifying for it is the peak of their career.

Can we permanently deny the small luxuries in life to these people? I say give these human pets their treats but in exchange have them fixed.

She was complaining about the prices of canned soup and pasta. Didn't feel sorry for her, but I could have smacked the idiot reporter, who ended the sob story by telling us that this woman wass in a government funded training program to learn a trade. She was training to be a chef. I kid you not...
$2 a pound actually covers plenty of staples, including meats and fruits and veggies.
