mp6.5 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Yeah! And all I can afford is the "Helper" part of Hamburger Helper. They spread my wealth, such as it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sayak Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 What? Lobster and steak! Many times I have stood in grocery lines behind women (generally with a brood of snot nosed kids) who rummaged past the cigarettes in their purses to get to their Quest Card. Often they bought foods I can't afford. I know... I'm just mean spirited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzRednek Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Come to my part of the country and it is not uncommon to see well dressed, non English speaking people using a food stamp debit card then drive off in a new or nearly new SUV or pick-up. They are an annoyance, often holding up the checkout lane getting in disputes over non covered items like beer, wine, pet food, paper and soap products. More often than not. Have to wait for a translator to come speak with them. In convenience stores kids will load up with junk food like ice cream, pastries and candy and swipe the food stamp card. The kids are wise enough to know the rules and buy soda in containers because it is not covered if poured from the fountain. Likely the same kids that get two free meals a day at school.

Spiris Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Those non English speaking people certainly know how to work the system, and raising the next generation of entitlement demanding children. Maybe the pseudo-president can develop a beer card for his thirsty amigos. Spiris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlunity Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 No one minds giving a hand to someone till they get back on their feet. But that is a dam crime. Uh..Hold on...a "beer card"??? Well now the need for social justice...: ) Karl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
