Food stamps should be as regulated as WIC. you can buy fresh veggies, milk, cheese, protiens, and bread.

 

This is bullshit. I know there are exceptions to every rule...but I recently witnessed a women checking out with her groceries divided. The first set of groceries included the milk, bread, etc for which she paid using her WIC card.

 

The second set included Marlboro Lights, 2 bottles of wine and a 12 pack of Bud Light Bottles.

 

Ok, not a big deal until I noticed she had pulled her Coach Wallet from her matching Coach bag to get to said cards. She was dressed very well; obvious designer jeans and jacket. I proceeded to check out and walk to my car and saw her getting into her 2009+ Jeep Cherokee with bratty personalized plates. This was at the Kroger in Powell.

 

I was pissed and this makes me cringe thinking about how flawed our system is. I know numerous hard working young women that do not live so well. :mad:

I didn't pay a dime in federal or state income taxes last year, despite making nearly 6 figures. Seems the government(s) wants to give me free money because I have a mortgage and 4 dependents. Talk about a government handout.

 

Where's the outrage about all the stupid shit I spend my money on?

The reason Lifecare Alliance is getting pet food is because these corporations that have damage shipments were throwing them in the dump. No government resources to purchase, only a little bit to maintain the program (within existing public assistance programs like Meals-on-Wheels).

Smoking is the most worthless thing ever. It does nothing for you and shows that you are a weak human.

But I agree smoking is bad. I've bitched out my sister when she was wanting to bum 20$ and a ride to the tobacco store. (She rolls her own and its way cheaper) but I was not giving her 20 of my hard earned moneys to smoke....

Forget the haters Clay. This is awesome of you and I respect you even more for your efforts. I will be delivering free Thanksgiving meals to the needy Thursday morning and I will feel better the rest of the day.

I agree 100%. If you can afford 5.75 a pack, then you dont need assistance.

I have been a smoker for 25 years and have tried to quit for the last 5 years. I have to agree with apache on part of what he said. I have been able to walk away from any other thing with no problem but I was very weak willed when it came to quit smoking. I couldnt make it an entire day. Fortunately I have been pretty succesfull in my latest attemt to quit and have not had a cig for 2 weeks, which is a big deal for me. I think it has to be the most addictive substance out there.
