The only thing you should be able to buy with "food stamps" are non-prepared fresh foods. You know, so you have to cook them yourself. Also, its a fucking scam. Why are you allowed to buy Red Bull with food stamps? Because some bitchy liberal complained that it was dehumanizing they couldn't buy stuff like chips and soda and the junk food industry lobby ran with it because they saw free government money coming their way.

Nearly two thirds of SNAP recipients who could work did not, says the report

It is a program intended to help you while you are down. Not for you to just live off of your neighbors labor/taxes. TWO OUT OF THREE SHOULD BE WORKING AND DONT.

>The food stamps scheme used by 42 million US residents has become too widespread and costly and hooks recipients on welfare, new research shows. The conservative Economic Policy Innovation Center (EPIC) in a report urges Congress to pare back a ballooning program by requiring more beneficiaries to work when they can. The study comes amid mounting challenges for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), which helps low-income families buy groceries, snacks, and non-alcoholic drinks.

It should have never been allowed in the first place. I think it started going in that direction in the 90's. I remember people spouting garbage like "Even someone on assistance should be allowed an indulgence now and then, it helps improve mood and get them out of the slump"..

No. No they don't. That is the point. When you are on "hard times" you have to work HARD to get out of them. You do not get luxury's just because it will make you a little happier for a day or two while also furthering your goal of getting diabetes.

It is SUPPOSED TO SUCK to have to be on a social program. You are SUPPOSED to hate it and be working to support yourself.

Its only gotten worse over the years. I think there are even some fast food places that can take EBT/SNAP now. What the fuck.

Not only should it suck, it should be shameful. These people have no shame in taking from others.

This is why Most Whites and Asians are barely ever on assistance and if they are its less than 6 months (often less than 3). It is because they still view it as shameful.

Now... The black/brown people... They see it as a right and that no matter how little or how much money they make they think they should get free shit.

I am so fucking tried of this. This is OUR labor that is being stolen. The only currency in life is your time. By taking from my wages to give to useless fucks that never want to get off the "system" you are stealing my LIFE. This is not fucking acceptable.
