This is such unmitigated horse crap. The pixels to produce this tripe were completely wasted. I’ve seen with my own eyes grocery carts loaded down with food I can’t afford as the shopper hangs up their iPhone and pulls out and swipes their EBT card with their extravagantly-done fingernails. Back when I was trying to feed a family of 6 on $120 a week. Do we need a safety net for folks who need one temporarily? Absolutely. Do we need a Tempur-Pedic California king sized bed for them? Absolutely not.

Every able bodied person should be entitled to one 6 month period of welfare and that’s it. After that, if your kids go hungry then you go to jail for 5 years per child and they go into foster care.

A few decades ago, there were only certain foods you could buy with food stamps. No processed junk food, beer or tobacco. Only real juice and cheese and not the imitation stuff. If there were rules back before the use of computerized cash registers, there can certainly be rules today.
