[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]News flash: 1. SNAP Benefits can only be used for food. Some people sell their benefits, but it’s hard and more rare than people would think. Food is expensive. 2. TANF is no windfall. A family of four with an HHI of 2400 per month gets about twenty dollars per month in cash assistance for every child without court ordered child support, even if the father does not pay. And no housing subsidy/voucher unless they are homeless and seeking housing. Waitlists are years long. 3. 37% of people in DC on SNAP, TANF, WIC benefits had a major medical emergency within the year applying for benefits that was not covered by their employer subsidized health insurance. 4. 97% of people on public benefits are working, in school, or have a major disability. 5. [b]Highlighting outliers and scammers just gives more justification to discriminate and make value judgements [/b].[/quote] Well this lady decided to write an article about it and tell all the world about her buying $58 shorts then signing up for free Christmas gifts. And she doesn’t feel bad about it. [/quote]
