Do you know what happens on the 1st and 2nd? People get their welfare checks, they cash them and they spend their (our) money......There is also a little scam out there where people sell their food stamps to others

Don't tell me you are another one like Carter who has never been to a ghetto before and thinks he knows something

Manicured nails.

Oh and we forgot the poster who claimed a woman bought dog food with food stamps also. The outrage!



Tenth thread duplicate, and counting.

OMG...this again??!!! Crab legs and filet mignon. Lobster and prime rib...next it will be caviar and champagne. Lobster may be more common when the food stamp recipient lives in Maine, but being on public assistance is far from living in the lap of luxury. This is obviously a common theme among republicans, funny that the republicans on foodstamps and disability know this but still repeat ths BS over and over again right along with the constant and false references to liberals not working. Who do you all think you're fooling with this nonsense?
