My daughter works at a grocery store and I hear the stories about what these lazy fat a$$es get. It’s not healthy and they are even able to get money back to buy cigarettes and booze!! Yeah, we can’t cut that, but defense of our country? We can certainly slice that. I have a compromise, we’ll send all these lazy SOBs into the military. Their food stamps can be their paycheck. I’ll even break out my smokey bear and put on my old drill instructor’s gear and help train them. Free of charge....
I hear you, I watched a young girl fill 5 large cups of soft drinks at a convenience store yesterday, paid with a Linx card (Illinois food stamps) They should teach responsible budgeting before they qualify for any freebies.
“It’s not healthy and they are even able to get money back to buy cigarettes and booze!! Yeah, we can’t cut that, but defense of our country? “
You don’t understand the communist mindset. Shared misery is not misery. If they can manage to get us all on food stamps and dependent on the government, no matter how crappy things are, it will be uniformly crappy. Well, except for party officials, of course.
As for booze and cigarettes... it pacifies the masses.
How fat to you need to be to qualify for food stamps?
My wife works at a grocery store and I hear these same stories! It's just despicable what these people buy with food stamps...what they are ALLOWED to buy, with our tax dollars! Chips, candy, steak, you name it!
And the attitude of entitlement is absolutely disgusting too. You would not believe some of the comments she hears from these POS....
Every single @#$%^&* cent the gubmint gives away, they had to take from someone who actually worked for it....and thats what disgusts me the most.
And the real kick in the nuts is that, if only people who needed and deserve this help would get it, 95% of the problems with the system wouldn't even exist.
This also makes me wonder why the Wookie doesn't even acknowledge this problem when she gets on her healthy eating high horse. (Don't think I need a sarc tag here, because I already know why she acts like this isn't even part of the problem)
I was at the 99cents store a week ago, and the mexicans use the EBT cards and one in front of me charged her grocs for $30! I am actually proud I worked for and paid for my 99 cent pop..
