The vouchers will be usable at any Safeway in Washington for food and household goods . . . . Families will be required to sign up for free Safeway memberships, the release said.

Someone on the council must be friends or family with a Safeway exec. Steering all the money to that store and also having them sign up for targeted advertising.

Touted as being only for “food,” but we all recognize that money is fungible; this cash frees up other money to be used for whatever, so there is really no constraint on its spending.

Great, it’ll be like WIC and EBT - load up on lobster and cheese and give/sell it to your friends and family.

4.8 million dollars split over how many PEOPLE, not the notion of 6,000 “families”. How many people and for how long will this “help them up” or just in reality “pissing into the stinky disease laden typhoid spreading wind” from the fens they live in?

Send them a loaf of bread, jar of peanut butter and jar of jelly. Gallon of milk and box of cereal.

But the idiot parents our there probably can’t figure out what to do with them.

How come these families do not qualify for Food Stamps (max. $153 per month per person)?

Also TANF - Temporary Assistance for Needy Families - which I think is paid in cash-on-a-card.

Also WIC - Food for Women, Infants, and Children

I can see some need for assistance for families who have kids that eat one or two meals at school each day.

All our schools have been closed.

Also - I would not want to be eating at any Free Kitchens or sleeping in a homeless shelter during the COVID-19 outbreak.

Can they combine this with voter registration and absentee ballots?

Connect the quid with quo.

Why do they always call them “working families”?

“Seattle will provide $800 each in vouchers to more than 6,000 families to help them buy food, cleaning supplies and other household goods at Safeway supermarkets during the coronavirus pandemic, Mayor Jenny Durkan said Monday.”

That should be enough to spread the virus far and wide. Gimmidats will travel quite a way to get the free loot, they will bring the virus on the return trip.

Nor likely. Last I knew the money from the beverage tax was already spent.

Problem is when this is all over the law passed in the dead of night under hysteria will be in place forcing these businesses to continue this practice. Gavine nusome is commandeering hotels to house those who are sick what do you think these will become? you got it! homeless housing. And we will hear the battle cry single payer would have saved the world
