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.

What’s the logical connection between not wanting the money confiscated from our paychecks to go to luxury items we can’t afford (because of the confiscation)
to wanting “tyranny”?
I’ve seen leftists argue this - that if you oppose their theft, somehow YOU’RE the one that’s a tyrant,
but I expect more logic out of a conservative.
Fully agree.
There are a lot of people who are just down on their luck and want to avoid living on the street and of course, others are just broken by life and just can’t carry on.
I wonder if anyone on this thread would refuse stamps and welfare if they were facing life on the street.

Most of us think that if we’re paying for your food you ought to shut the hell up and eat what we tell you to eat.
Funny how this works both ways!

If they are on long term assistance i assume they are some sort of loser or user. I have know A LOT of people who were capable of work who lived most of their lives on assistance. As for boozers and druggies the odds are greater they would be on some kind of assistance since they have all the time and the world and get cash medical and housing for doing nothing. Perfect environment for a boozer or a druggy.
If it doesn’t apply to some than it doesn’t apply.
Nah, not druggies or boozers, just lazy a f***. I see it first hand almost everyday. I see the noble poor, who are on asssitance selling their EBT cards for cash. Right now I could go buy one iin about 5 minutes. I see the down and out buying a cart of food with EBT, then pulling out a wad of cash to pay for a cart load of crap at Walmart. I see the neighborhoods of the EBT crowd, who just want to eat healthy, full of fast food restaurants and newly opened dyalysys centers.

In today's America, the down and out who truly need the assisance EBT offers are the exception, not the rule. The system is corrupt and full of people who have no intention of getting out of the system and paying their own way.

There is a rule in my house, if I am paying your bills, you are not an adult, no matter how old you are. If society is footing the bill for these people society SHOULD be able to dictate how it is inacted. They tyranny comes in the form of a government which takes money from others and uses it as largess. That tyranny is only reinforced by those that demonize the people who speak out against it.
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
You point out the exception to the rule. Here’s my experience - the foodstamp/AFDC secretary shared an office with my secretary. She’d worked there for years and was becoming more and more upset over the same families, their children and their children’s children cycling through generation after generation forever. They’d come in smelling of booze and smoking and bragging about their latest bling to each other but complaining to her their children were starving. One day she’d had enough and quit. Why? Because the “clients” were raking in more money for sitting on their duffs than she did working 40 plus hours a week.
