My comment after the WaPo article:
This is the law of unintended consequences rearing its ugly head for all to see. Good intentions do not good outcomes make, when the government attempts to “help” millions of people by giving them handouts. The EBT/SNAP program has now mis-raised a generation of unmotivated dolts, living as serfs on the Democrat welfare dependency plantation. More children means more EBT money, no fathers needed! A hundred generations learned the hard lessons of frugality, but today natural law is turned on its head by politicians seeking to buy cheap votes. But as bad as this system is, in terms of reinforcing negative human behaviors, the worst is yet to come. What happens when (not if) the EBT system implodes during a financial crisis, computer network failure, or cyber attack etc? A month ago we saw a 17-state “glitch” cause the EBT system to go down, and within three hours, there was looting of supermarkets by outraged welfare recipients, who do not see the “magic money” appearing on their EBT cards as charity, but as an iron-clad human right. This will end in tears and catastrophe not if, but when, the EBT system collapses and 50 million Americans go hungry, and then go looting, and then go rioting.
How long do you suppose that will stay up?
What’s the over/under for time to censorship for THAT comment?
