What this means is that should Congress fail to increase the debt ceiling this week, come November there will literally be millions of people in the United States who will have exactly zero dollars transferred to their EBT cards.
What will happen to the nearly 50 million people who depend on these benefits to survive?
Think this past weekend and multiply it across the entirety of the United States of America.
In the State of Utah the immediate effect of the USDA’s contingency plan will be a freeze in benefits for 100,000 people. Richard Phillips, a homeless man who depends on the government’s monthly distributions, warned what would happen next:
"It’s going to cause problems… because then you’re going to come to find out that you’re going to have people starting to steal and do what they have to do to survive."

A non-prepper's way of prepping: know the address of the nearest prepper, and have a baseball bat.
Democrats do not go to National Parks or war memorials. They use their Obama phones and EBT cards, and get jobs as Obamacare Navigators. These things will continue unabated.
Obama people will riot. You just don’t get it. Obama wants an excuse and if he can’t find one he will make one.
They'll get hungry and start looking for food and take what they find from those that are defenseless, frail, infirm,weak,etc.
This could get out of control rapidly.
Another looking to commit suicide by prepper.
No argument here, I've had a few of those positions my self.
Problem is, we have 90 million people out of the work force, many of them highly trained and qualified for much better positions.
Face it, we're in a huge mess.
holder’s people will just go to “affluent” suburbs and start taking whatever they want. They don’t have to worry about ever being prosecuted.
They do have to worry about those eeeevvvvviiiillllll normal, hard-working, non-violent, productive people who will protect their lives and assets.
What was it Marie Antoinette said when told the people had no bread?
“Let them eat cake”.
If Obama feels froggy, he needs to jump on this.
The freeloaders will riot, while the truly needy will seek help from their religious organizations, friends and family.
Obama may try some krap with martial law, but he won’t succeed, nor will he be dictator for life.
Guess that’s easy for me to say, being in Texas.
So far, he’s done plenty to piss off Republicans and Conservatives. His crowd, not so much. Let me know when you find something that he has done to piss off his peeps. And he doesn’t need riots to get what he wants, the Republican Party is doing all that for him.
We have a President, at this time?! :O New to me :p
Just putting a stake through 0Care’s heart would open up thousands of jobs. Seeing a propensity for free market policies would open up the flood gates of new jobs.

::everybody sing::
I see the bad moon arisin’
I see trouble on the way
I see earthquakes and lightnin’
I see bad times today
Don’t go around tonight
Well, it’s bound to take your life
There’s a bad moon on the rise
I hear hurricanes ablowin’
I know the end is comin’ soon
I fear rivers overflowin’
I hear the voice of rage and ruin
Don’t go around tonight
Well, it’s bound to take your life
There’s a bad moon on the rise
Alright
Hope you got your things together
Hope you are quite prepared to die
Looks like we’re in for nasty weather
One eye is taken for an eye
Well, don’t go around tonight
Well, it’s bound to take your life
There’s a bad moon on the rise
Don’t go around tonight
Well, it’s bound to take your life
There’s a bad moon on the rise
I thought it was “There’s a bathroom on the right.”
People can live better living on the taxpayers dime than they can working.
In some states people are getting the same as someone working and bringing home $50,000+ after tax.
“Until Lawyer becomes a rare delicacy. ;-)”
Nah. I hear they taste like a cross between shark meat and ass meat. Tough and grisly.
