EBT To Shut Down Nationwide Starting November

USDA

[txhurl]

Oh, me, too. Just wondering if it’s actually possible this happens. If it does, right after giving PBS 455 million, then it IS CW II. Before Nov 1.

[SZonian]

Point.

[Secret Agent Man]

besides the ones that already are?

[central_va]

The price of steak, lobster, shrimp and bacon to plummet....

I guess the EBT shutdown over the weekend was a demonstration of what can be expected to happen.

Think of it as a 'dry run'...

That said, if dems are working at creating a race war it might be wise to expand 'food bank' assistance. I guess the 'pain' dems want to cause isn't enough ... so using their dependent class to rob and beat up more responsible citizens is their first option of choice.

Are democrats evil?

Costco? SNAP receivers would have to pay the membership fee.

[Mr. K]

Let the rioting begin

I’m ready

[steve86]

You’re foolish to look forward to that.

[cripplecreek]

Only an idiot would believe it was actually going to happen and despite the fact that FReepers want to BELIEVE like a bunch of liberals.

I’m also hearing that there will be a nationwide power grid shutdown in November.

[Mr. K]

Be sure to stock up on dried Lipton onion soup mix.

It can transform the most tasteless of meals into something delicious

Dried beans are no good without water to soak them in! Have a bunch of 5-gallon containers of water

TOILET PAPER will be better than dollars when TSHTF (it might be cheaper to use actual dollars soon)

who has a hidden room where you can store things? (I wouldn’t tell you if I did)

HAS ANYONE TRIED THOSE MAIL ORDER NGO SEEDS?

[Old Sarge]

Oh dang, I spoke too soon.

Look at this ping.

[TheOldLady]

He doesn’t need those people any longer. They’ve already done what was needed of them...vote for 0bama.

Shout it from the rooftops.
How do you like your oblahblah fo' now, takers? oblahblah gave you a FO, mang!
How's that healthcare going for you?
Gee, too bad you can't eat those phones.
You have been used and abused, and you are about to be discarded.
Your messiah is hoping that you just kill each other off in the riots.
He's tired of you and wants Mexicans who will work and vote for his communism reliably.
Of course, once you're dead, you'll still be able to vote for what he wants.

[Jack Black]

CWII Ping.

See Matt Bracken's prophetic article Will Obama stop the music this November?

Many have predicted that turning off the EBT card would be the start of serious violent rioting in the USA, possibly a precursor to CWII. Thus, the ping.

[Mortrey]

Benghazi Barry and Valerie Jarrett sure love messing with our upcoming holidays, don’t they?

[kjam22]

So ..... assuming the law of supply and demand etc..... if we take billions of dollars out of the consumers hands .... the demand drops .... the supply is long .... and the price comes down for those who actually have their own money.

[Donnafrflorida]

excellent post. the waste is staggering.

[Jane Long]

True, they would have to *somehow* pay a membership fee for Costco...but, Costco DOES accept EBT :(

[Boogieman]

A HUD property we managed received noticed that Federal housing subsidies might not be paid on time either, but there was no end date, it was just a scare letter.

[txhurl]

Well, we also have to analyze what happens to the black-market foodstamp economy... convenience stores.. drug trafficking.. selling your food stamps for 50cents on the dollar.. restaurants cooking meats procured via EBT.. where’s the money to make the Escalade payment... there’s just too much craziness for me to believe it will actually happen.

The SNAP shutdown plan claims that SNAP funds have been forward funded and there is funding from fiscal year 2013 that will last for the entire fiscal year 2014.
