Video: EBT System Crash: 16 States Out of Service:
SHTF Plan ^ | 10/13/13 | Mac Slavo

Posted on 10/13/2013 1:31:32 PM PDT by Kartographer

If you ever wanted to know what the United States might look like and how people will react should the EBT system fail, then pay close attention

I go to the register and they ask me “how you going to pay.”

I said with food stamps.

“Oh, we’re shut down, you can’t pay with food stamps.”

I got kids to feed. You know?

And because the government’s down I can’t feed my family?

What’s going on with America? Now they trying to starve us to death?

…This is crazy

…I got six kids I have to feed.

I’m just trying to figure out how to get something to eat.

So is the regime flying in squads of HHS employees to hand out paper food stamps in the neighborhoods?

Don’t they care about America’s starving Democrat voters?

You do your pickled eggs kinda sweet. I use onion, various peppers and go spicy on my eggs. I turned an extra bedroom into a canning kitchen and walk in pantry with old cupboards we salvaged from another Victorian we own in town (kitchen was mid century remodeled). “Canning Week” in town is a lot of fun, a bunch of us get together, meet down at the bar/restaurant in town help each other can and preserve and then share and barter.

Do you use 5 gallon buckets for the fermentation? I found these great screw on air tight lids for them that I use for my storage.

Do you really have a need to be hostile? I was just making a comment, not accusing. Though you did say “Its always some one else’s job.”

If I were lonely, I dang sure wouldn’t ping you to fix it. You’re far to self-absorbed for my liking!

With your fundamental lack of comprehension do you really need to go about sending strangers your correction, enlightenment, philosophy or perhaps your plain wrong headedness.

I dont welcome it.

Back during WWII, as a kid my brother-in-law remembered when the feds raided their west Texas ranch. it seems someone told the feds the ranchers were hoarding food.

All the home grown and canned foods they had were confiscated.
They survived that winter because they had another storage cellar hid way out in the hills.

Oh snap...what a zinger! NOT

I really couldn’t care less what you think about me. Your opinion means NOTHING to me. Now slither off and spout your idiocy somewhere- where someone might be interested.

You made the initial foray, now your telling me to get lost?

Moron.

Yeah, I made the mistake that everyone leaves their carts filled in a supermarket, and that everyone abuts their cart against my car.

Give me a break, simpleton.
Keep it to yourself next time.

“I’m just trying to figure out how to get something to eat.”

I remember the left spewing hatred when a wise woman told them the facts of survival: “We eat, therefore we hunt.”

I don’t expect them to ever understand Sarah. To leftists, self sufficiency is a crime - government dependency is cool.

I’m sorry.

I called you names, insulted you.

I’m sorry.

You agitated my pet peeve, and again I’m sorry.

I should have ignored what I responded to.

I’m sorry.

Apology accepted, please also accept mine. I didn’t mean to aggravate your pet peeve. I was simply saying not all were rude and must have misworded my comment to have said it in a way that ired you.

Have a nice (and blessed) evening.

First, no one tells me what I can/cannot do on my own property. This is America still dammit.

Second we don't have Ash on our property.

Who are you, the DNR?

You get caught hauling ash EVEN out of your property and across state lines without proper cautions and you will end up in jail. Understand?

It was people like you who brought the ash borer up in the UP in the first place.

And yes BOY, I know those who will send you in front of the judge if you try it. Understand?

I think that somebody posted a map on another FR thread relating to this topic.
