They could've picked anyone to represent an EBT card holder. They picked an internet meme.

You can just skip to :00:49.. and then...
"WHat's going on in America? What are they doing to us? Now, they tryin' to starve us to death?"

You didn't get it. They had loads of people to pick to interview and they chose the black lady with nice nails, nice hair, nice clothes and.... with 6 kids.

It's news manipulating the public with stereotypes. (SEEl EBT PEOPLE ARE JUST LIKE THIS!) Plus, it's like Jerry Springer. It's why I hate network news. People want to see this, though. Why was Springer so popular? Crap like this.

speechless. probably half of the people in that food 4 less, like most food 4 less locations, are on public assistance, but only these two fools were dumb enough to get on camera? or maybe it's just some good old fashion editing. either way, black folks, please don't get on camera talking about your welfare issues.

gotta add, I sure missed food 4 less when the commissary was closed last week. these east coast grocery store prices are crazy.

And this is why you can NEVER defund the Food Stamp Bill...I mean the Farm Bill.
EBT goes out for a few hours in 17 states and look what happens.

Imagine if it really went out ?

They couldn't have done this story in Utah or Idaho where a whole lot of people have 4 or more kids and rely on EIC, Snap, and school lunch program. By the way the black birth rate isn't that much higher than the white birth rate.

How irresponsible of her to have that many freakin kids. And yet taxpayers are the ones who have to foot the bill for her irresponsibility.

You asked for it and now your'e about to have a taste of it. You PC will riot in the street and probably starve anyway. It's what you deserve for what you have done.

The sooner you learn these lessons the sooner we can get back to a real economy where you PAY as you GO. Now PAY UP! Let the real hunger games begin.

At least she got her nails done!...JK

The government shut down did not cause this. Try reading a paper every once in a while or maybe even watch the news and she would have known that.
