So what happens when the Federal government can’t issue Nov Food Stamps?

To their local food market or corner store. Not sure if you’ve taken a look at what the family dollar/dollar general is selling, but it’s virtually all processed, but it’s what is available close to home.


That's what happens when stores are raided and looted, and judges don't uphold justice and let criminals go scot-free. Stores try to put stuff behind counters and under glass, but eventually they give up and close.

You wanted this nirvana, so we're living it now.

In the DC metropolitan area Trader Joe's are plentiful while family dollar/dollar general are only in farther out suburbs. Ironically the three dollar stores that I know of are all in strip malls that also have a TJ's.


EBT is not simply for Dollar General or Trader Joe’s, although the latter has a decidedly greater selection of organic foods, as well as sustainably-sourced and fair-trade foods and products.

EBT is accepted at a wider variety of retail establishments every year.

Maybe the unemployment rate will drop even more.

Ok, but how is forcing people to use their SNAP benefits on more expensive food just because it's unprocessed going to help any of this? It sounds like you just want to rant about poor people and how much you think they suck.

True. If your Walmart, Safeway, Giant, or Target has its own Starbucks, then:

- you can even use EBT at those Starbucks locations.

I don't mind people on SNAP. I mind able-bodied people on SNAP for generations. Got it?

There's abuse of SNAP and you want it to continue instead of auditing it at a happy-medium. Tired of the lies and cover up of fraud, waste and abuse.

I guess a certain group of people won't be able to buy shopping carts full of meats and canned goods with EBT, cart it all back to their own stores and food trucks and resell it for cash?

You know it's happening and yet you want to continue the grift. Enough.

Statistically most people who receive these benefits work full time and/or are seniors. You realize you can work full time at McDonalds and still be in the property level?

Seriously they have time for this?

They're just poor maga coming to get some good vibes by owning the libs

If they actually were someone, they would be out there grifting like all the well off maga are doing. This is the perfect environment.

I see a system where we had 24 million on food stanps and it shot up to 47 million on EBT overnight under Obama.

There''s something to be said for self-sufficiency and self-pride.

BTW, we had a 10% COLA under Biden. That tells you where the real problem is. The federal reserve out of control with money creation. Time to get off the treadmill.

Clarification: 10% Social Security COLA increase in one year.

Then how will we build ballrooms and arches and buy fighter jets for brunette Barbie and give tax breaks to billionaires?

You’re no fun!
