What the Hell is Wrong With This Country? (Vanity Rant)
Self | 4/21/19 | Self

Posted on 04/21/2019 3:36:46 PM PDT by kaehurowing

This is the first vanity I have ever posted on FR.

Today, while my wife and I were at the grocery, we got stuck behind an obvious Middle Eastern "immigrant."

He ran up a bill of over $400 in baby formula, cheese, and all sorts of other things. I could see the items being rung up as he was doing this. And then I watched him produce one WIC voucher after another to pay for all of this, and I watched the cashier zero out one item after another. This process took more than 20 minutes, and held up everyone else in line. He even started sending the checkout people to the back of the store to get more stuff for him so he could use up all the WIC vouchers. At the end everything had been zeroed out except for $9.73. Then he whips out his VISA card and pays for that on his credit card.

Why do we tolerate this? We just paid for all of this stuff for this guy, who obviously was not hurting for money. So does he re-sell it or what does he do?

Why not use question marks? Learn the language. Assimilate.

Welfare fraud is an important issue and costs taxpayers millions. But just exactly what fraud was seen in this instance? Using WIC vouchers while appearing Middle Eastern?

How was it obvious he was not hurting for money?

Just curious about your EBT detectors.

You should ask your state rep and congressman. This has little to do with Presidents. They don’t make the rules. Start asking locally and you will get your answer.

But you should be a little more careful about making declarations about the status of other folks. These issues are best handled in the total, not making assumptions about inviduals you know nothing about.

Give it a rest. You know exactly what I’m talking about.

“The benefits are also restricted to pregnant, postpartum and breastfeeding women, infants, and children up to age 5.”

That’s my point. And don’t tell me it was a poor refugee taking this stuff home for his family. That obviously wasn’t what was going on. First thing, the guy obviously had a LOT of experience doing this.

They do not get MORE money based on what they buy. They CAN buy lobster, but they are not getting more for the rest of the week.

The third most obvious answer is that we have become mere sheep. We have lost our outrage. Anyt sane tax paying population would revolt and drag the politicians out in the streets and beat them to death with baseball bats until nothing was left but bloody pulp.

Happy Easter.

One card for each of his half dozen wives. Or he stole them.

Did he thank you for paying his bill?

And they are both better than us, because they “care” and “take care of the less fortunate”, and “for the chillrun”.

It’s entirely about world-wide redistribution of wealth. The main goal of the left.

I’ve wanted to report US citizens getting SS disability who are perfectly fine. Problem is, when I’ve tried, the SS wants all my info.

Would you prefer “sprout,” when referencing the offspring of “people of the bean,” as a La Raza called them?

Muslims in US request food stamps even while they have enough money to purchase because they hide their bank accounts information to be eligible for these stamps...further it is not ‘haram’ because they aren’t taking money from an Islamic country!

Two brothers f who defrauded food stamp programs at a Portland market they ran were sentenced to prison and ordered to pay $1.4 million in restitution.

Not only this, but mooslimes use phonetic spellings of their names. This means they can spell their names 6 ways to Sunday and get 6 checks. It has already been proven that this goes on since 2002, that I know of.

Interesting, but what is he doing with all this stuff? Does he resell it, give it to the voucher suppliers minus a fee? He can't eat it all himself so something is going on with all the food.

The rats are buying votes. And there are lots of “sellers.”
