“Bill was about $90, but the EBT card price was around $60.”

I’ve never heard of that and don’t understand how it could even work.

Our Rx’s are often delivered the next day or 2 days at a max after we request a refill.

Now, we often get former rxes, now OTC’s at good if not better prices than Amazon.

It took 10 days to get a special eye appt to get Rxes for some special driving glasses.

It took another 10 days to get a special vision test to enable me to read big books with small print while sitting in my Lazy Boy.

We have friends, who are not patients of our hmo and they seem locked in for phone appts. for serious problems.

A church lady at our church is still an active RN, and she encourages these people to get real appts. not just phone B$.

This surge of phone appts. seems to be happening across America in our post Covid world for those of us in our late 70’s to our 80’s.

Your grocery store gives you the EBT price, in addition to what YOUR regular price is?

Ours doesn’t do that.

What I can see, is if the person in front of me, or, over in next aisle is using EBT, as it shows up on the cashier’s register screen (which is good sized).

This is the first time I’ve seen that. It was in the self-checkout line.

I looked it up and apparently some items have EBT-eligible discounts (I think mostly staples like veggies, milk, etc.)

First time I’ve ever seen it at the checkout.

Well....at least your grocer is showing the difference in prices .... one for thee, one for THEM .... I wonder if they realize they’re doing this.

Will have to pay closer attention in my store’s self check out line.

The result of medicine and medication being corporatized. Corporations primary function is to maximize profits for investers.

Why does it take longer to get an appointment? Because there are more patients? As to care being more expensive, what isn’t more expensive than 14 years ago?

I see placards for the WIC program but have never seen discounts for SNAP (in my state).

Next time I’m going to take a picture of the check-out screen.

If we lose the 2024 GE to the leftists, socialists, Marxists, communists, fascists, anarchists etc, the America we grew-up with, knew and loved, is gone.

That America has been gone for at least 20 years already. If the Left gets away with stealing 2024 (and chances are they will), we'll all be lucky not to be J6'd. And even if Trump somehow manages to beat the steal-- then what? Who's waiting in the wings?

Obama/Biden, the Democrat Party, voters who vote Democrat and RINOs consistently “act stupidly” which will end badly for all.

Elon Musk @elonmusk:

Biden’s strategy is very simple:

1. Get as many illegals in the country as possible.

2. Legalize them to create a permanent majority – a one-party state.

That is why they are encouraging so much illegal immigration. Simple, yet effective!
