Why do some on here always assume that because a person receives food stamps that they are boozers or druggies? I know several people who get them and do NOT fit into this category. I think some of you on here would fit in nicely with the tyranny crowd.

Well you can "feel" any way you like. I pay their bills. So the can hear my complaints.

The problem with this whole Plastic Welfare funding is it gives the user the mindset that they are just like everyone else using C.C. to buy stuff. Problem is My plastic deducts out of MY bank account. Theirs deducts out of MY paycheck.

As far as I am concerned they should do away completely with the Welfare credit cards. They could save 3/4 of the money wasted on junk food and premium meats etc by handing out powdered milk, blocks of cheese, Peanut Butter and canned meat.

They are Living off others, their Opinion means NOTHING to me. Anyone should have a bit of shame accepting welfare. The Problem is in the minds of most on the system it is a right and they will damned well spend it on what they want.

So take it away...You want to eat for free, you get what WE provide.

It is Insulting to listen to anyone on the system complain about what they get when I have to stand in line at a checkout and watch fat, tattooed people with the latest greatest smart phone repeatedly try to pay for Brisk drinks and Klondike bars on their Bridge card. When it won't accept it because there isn't enough left on their months allotment they use the card for the drinks and pay cash for the candy, then ask for 3 packs of Cigarettes at $6 a pack and pay with cash.

Then the working stiff in the line behind them has to budget their money and live off ramen noodles and hotdogs.

Anyway you slice it when 50+ million apply for handouts the majority are scammers. I won't begrudge anyone that needs it and uses it as intended by the majority are freeloading parasites too lazy to get off their asses and work to support themselves. LBJ and many Politicians saw clear to make a whole lot of lazy people dependent and the sheeple lined up for free stuff. Rant off

LBJ was a genius. Locked in Democrat votes forever. And by putting it under the Ag Dept instead of HEW, he made food stamps politically bulletproof.
