“Sure they can, on their Section VIII stoves in the homes we also provide for them.
Anyone too stupid to know how to boil Waterloo

In today’s computerized world, it ought not be too hard for for those who receive food stamps to be put into more refined categories, such as those who have a residence. I agree, the ones who do have facilities to prepare meals should be limited to bulk foods, most of which require preparation. However, the ones who need and benefit the most from the program are homeless, for whatever reason. I’m also in favor of drug testing recipients of ALL welfare type programs, which will probably also get me flamed by the drug legalization types.

Not flaming you, just saying that food stamps were set up so Americans would not starve.
It has been corrupted, as the governor points out, so that people use it to buy stuff it was never intended to provide. People in homeless shelters are fed. Why do they need food stamps?
I’m talking about people who game the system and use it as another source of income. This is just another area where Americans are fed up with programs we pay for that don’t make any sense.

The don’t have resources is BS. In a 100% primitive setting (I literally throw a sleeping bag on the ground out of my open top landcruiser at a totally random flat enough location in the desert. Between a $20 dollar hibachi stove from any asian market that burns propane at $5 for about 20 hours, a dutch oven, or just a small campfire, I can cook almost anything I can make in my kitchen. just this year meals have included prime rib, king crab, pad thai, bacon wrapped scallops, beef barley soup, ox tail pho, cornish game hens, tiramisu cheese cake, fried ice cream, cajun shrimp, low country boil, and summer has just barely. All of this outdoors 50 miles from the nearest human being, and zero running water or any other kind of “facilities”
