Re: Food Stamps
If the state/federal government subsidizes your income (besides disability) you should work for the state/federal government; building roads, public works, garbage pickup.... manual labor
Unemployment needs to be overhauled as well so you can't sit on it for a year with little to no effort.
The free ride needs to stop. The American working class can't continue to carry the burden of the lazy. Especially when the lazy have the same voting rights. We are fighting a losing battle. Attrition is not in our favor....

Sorry bout that, get a little worked up when I think about what our country is doing to itself.

The prices seem reasonable, besides just because your poor and need assistance shouldn't mean you can't eat well. Just kidding.
They should have a state store to buy food and all the food should be generic brand foods. Also, they should put up a list of names for people who have been on foods stamps longer than a year in the store. It's okay to get help when one needs it, but it's not okay to take advantage of ones generosity.

I see able-bodied men in their mid 20's using the EBT card (food stamps on a debit card so there is no shame). I want to beat them senseless.

If I were to guess this is probably a card surrendered in place of some liquor or cash.
I knew guys in college that would trade .10 to the dollar in stamps just so the owner could by booze.

I would like to see a law requiring EBT cards/welfare checks/"gumbment" assistance to be finger print recognized.
1) only the person whose fingerprint is on the card could use it, therefore stopping people from selling them for $.10 on the dollar. Thumb print reader at checkouts.
2) criminals would either stop applying for the cards so they can't get caught for their crimes, or we can catch more criminals when they do apply.
3) would keep jack asses from cashing/receiving aid from dead relatives.
And we could actually push/promote this idea as a benefit, and not a hindrance, to the card holder pointing out the fact that it keeps their money free from theft.

I have a better idea. Cut the food stamp program off. If they want to eat they can sell their plasma tv and cut off their cable. They will still have a free cell phone to babel on and play games, a hud house with free AC and social services will provide them with a car and gas so they can ride day babies to the doctor and get free health care.
I think we should cut all that crap out and let them learn the long lost art of building mud huts.

Re: Food Stamps
Pisses me off when I see crap like that in the store. Nice clothes, new Nikes on, buying food with the food stamp debit card, then beer and smokes with cash. I should just take something out, and tell him that's my money he's using to pay for his stuff.

Re: Food Stamps
There is a local guy that is roughly my age (25), appears able bodied, and able minded. However he is also open about being on disability, unemployment, AND food stamps. No remorse whatsoever just lazy and complains about his "migraines" and "back pain".
If that isn't enough he shows up at the 150yd range with a brand spanking new Savage 110BA and 50rds of Hornady ammo. And that's it. No scope. And proceeds to "sight it in" at 100 without any sights whatsoever. Wasting 35 rds.
So not only am I paying for this asshat to watch cable, surf the internet, and sit in AC, but I'm also paying for him to own a rifle nicer than a lot of decent hardworking people will never be able to afford. Pisses me off to no end!

lets make it worse...some offenders take the seafood out of the front door and then bring it back inside saying it smells funny. Store cant provide credit on an EBT card so they have to give a cash refund. Recipient then takes cash and buys beer. since seafood left the premises..it has to be thrown away...talk about screwing the store owner and the working public who support these @#$%^

<--Thinking of all the ammo and gun money I could free up if I went on food-stamps/etc.
I heard that so many people are on the dole that they don't even check your application against your IRS numbers.

Re: Food Stamps
All this welfare crap needs to go back to the county, or lower, level of govt where at least there is more control. IE you can see who's deserving and who's not. Subsidiarity is the word.
It ain't gonna happen though as these are votes for you know who.

If it were administered at the local level, like it used to be many moons ago, the local taxpayers would have control and could see where all the money went. Now it's all hidden in the giant federal bureacracy under the Food Stamp Bill, I mean Farm Bill.
And there's no shame in it any more.

Re: Food Stamps
Worked hard all my life.
Served 2 tours in Viet Nam.
No medical or crap from the VA.
Got fired from my last job.
Took early retirement at 62 from SSA drawing a little better than $1500 per month.
Tried to get another job, but at this point in my life, all the HR person sees on the job ap is MASSIVE CORONARY = CATASTROPHIC HEALTH COVERAGE IF HIRED!!!
Got a part time job with a company that sells wood working equipment and now making $2000/month with contract jobs pluss the $9/hr they pay me on 16 hours per week.
I'm sure CZAR Obama will try to take that away from me. It is free enterprise, isn't it???
I get to go shoot a lot.
Life is good.
