They are cutting them so the money can be diverted to The First Lady's agenda of healthy food at schools shit.

The democrats voted for this diversion but now are back-tracking to try and change that.

not sure what you are trying to say, but either way food stamp recipients have went way up under Obama...BUT that is the point of his presidency, to make as many people as possible depend on the government.

More food stamp recipients = more votes for democrats

It seems that almost all of the people I've met that get food stamps just straight up sell them for cash.

No. Read the article for five minutes and try to look at the yes/no system... :foreheadslap:

Why?? Americans overproduce and overuse. No one deserves to struggle. Not saying it's the case every time, but there are some people who have made an honest living all their life and because of reasons they couldn't control, are stuck working their ass off for no particular reason other than survival. While others get paid to influence molly at parties to the uneducated, and twerk with no ass.

All that aside, human beings are capable of being civilized enough to survive with very minimal struggle, so why should we make unnecessary sacrifices?

Ok you guys. I think we can all agree that feeding people is the moral thing to do here, this isn't Somalia

Feeding people is fine, but why do others have to pay for those that aren't willing to contribute?

there are a lot of people who really don't need them but still have them. food stamps should be only for those who truly need them

And anyone that says work hard do your part blah blah blah doesn't know shit about tough times.

Tell me what my options where after getting over illnesses that prevented me from working with only a mother that was in massive debt from the five out of nine years ofy illnesses and my dads death left her whole working harder than you ever have.
I did t and dont have any relatives that I talk ad I never knew them.
I had no one to help a pile of debt (which I still have and always will because I do t see me ever having $482,000 to pay the hospitals).

It sucks that there is no way to make sure they are not abused and from all I have seen they are abused more than they're not and because of that its wise for America to end the easy $200 a month scam

I was on food stamps off and on for about 6 years I have had food stamps. I've had them four times at 6 months at a time. And I never sold any of them, I did buy food and cook for others with them or let others use them as they needed due to financial trouble but never got anything for.

But I can promise that if I didn't have them at the time I did I would have not done well with my position of holding up cardboard at busy intersections.

Don't get me wrong those hard times lasted a short time until I had a decent job and a place to live. And I'm not going to lie and say I needed them 100% of the time I had them. But I sure as shit actually needed them for more than 50% of the time.

Food stamps may have helped me get a job and do better since they prevented me from stealing food (I never steal and am highly against it) to survive which if thats the only option you have to do what it takes to survive.


When I had them I never had a place. I was homeless usually when I got them then people would let me couch sit and blah blah blah.

To the people that use them correctly they are life savers. I would say at least no joke 60% (that's low balling) people use them so they can use their cash on luxuries which is the same thing as selling them if you ask me. I don't mean some beers here and there. O mean like a $600 tv while you still have a working tv which isore than what most starving people have.


If you haven't been in my position, you have no clue how excited you get when the begging of the month is coming. Constantly say five more days and I won't be hungry, four more days ons so on.

I had friend that wouldn't keep track and all that because obviously he didn't need them.

Thank god I have a good job that pays $800 a week now. To bad the more money I make the faster I spend it. I remebef at times even recently that $800 would easily last a month or two no problem. And now I struggle for the week. But that's because im trying to get all bills a month ahead so if anything bad happens I will havea month to get it back together.

And then I go kill a bitch because the flaming orb in the sky told me to do so, and I don't know, oppress a few minorities here and there in the name of nuclear fusion?

Religion is fun.
