Bush’s free thousands after Katrina went to booze and smokes.

Restaurants here have accepted EBT cards for years. SNAP was bound to be next. That’s reason #47 why I don’t eat out. Why should I have to scrimp to stay on a tight grocery budget only to pay taxes so they can go out to eat?

Posted yesterday that I made burgers for 75 cents at home v. $6 Burger King burgers. Quarter lb. beef 50 cents, big day old sale bakery bun 8 cents, cheese 12 cents and veggies/mustard 5 cents. I’ve posted many times of making 4-5 Schlotsky’s sandwiches for the price of one at the drive-thru. Eating in a restaurant is even more expensive. We limit $5/day for food for each of us and that’s eating meat and veggies, not beans and rice or pasta . Cooking at home is always cheaper than going out so why is the government frittering away our tax dollars for the higher priced option?

Don’t you understand that these people are too busy to cook, working three jobs? </s>
