Why didn't you sue them

you are a strong human being.I hope you are doing fine now.

Fr Louie Goad Mr. President I love my presidentdo the right thing good job

No complaining stop making a baby birth control please

how did you get in that situation to begin with?

Ghost 2960 and then they get blamed and then ostracized from society for being poor. Yea. It's sick to me too.

Nobody asked for their service. They chose to join the military. I don't owe them shit.

please, vets come out with full pensions, dont read too much into bs propaganda, vets have it too good. I have full pension for 4 years of service.

M Lester Whats your address?

Ghost 2960 you know i 'm always wondering they don't get any help or any skills for getting a job.

Exactly it's the same situation here In Australia we don't have food stamps but money is deposited straight into people's bank accounts & In some locations, funds are being put onto a card, Many people on social security & food stamps do work but they simply can't get enough hours to fully support themselves. Society needs to stop passing judgment on those who are In these circumstances & remember job loss, disability or Ill health does not discriminate.

Although we don't have SNAP here In Australia we still have people on welfare because they can only get part time hours at work, You can work 1 hour a week & you are still counted as being employed In the stats.

***** You do realize that if the past 2 Presidents hadn't of taken all of the jobs and sent them overseas, there wouldn't be thousands of people out of work. Easy to say go out and get a job and then get a second one, have you been job hunting in the past few years? Yes, there are some mom's who would rather be taking care of their kids because you can't trust nanny's and daycares these days to do it. Too many child molesters and child abusers out there working those caring for kids jobs.

+Carolee Kelly I don't know about all others. Elderly carried this country by paying taxes made it possible for us to go to school and we should pay them back when they need it. I'm for helping handicapped when their families can't aid them enough. People can insure their adult children until they turn 26-27 so I see no need for any child of theirs under 27 they should be getting welfare of any sort.

+Mentholian Smoke the government doesn't send jobs overseas the corporations cut and run leaving american workers without a job cannot compete with 3 cents an hour in china and no bathroom breaks

Why do you think any employer owes you anything? Create your own future and stop whining.

you believe an employer owes you nothing when your labor makes him or her wealthy, while you stay in poverty for you and your family. kinda like a scumbag drug dealer preys on the weak to make wealth for themselves

+Free Soul Yes, exactly. Even if you have a job for a company or cooperation we are slaves! Slaves that do not get paid enough to live, eat, or live without this stress and have to rely on government assistance. Like they say, " The rich get richer and poor, poorer."

Free Soul genies for hire

Stop breeding, stand up for your own life .

Nubian Khaleesi it is not! The US has a great leader and he will create jobs while maintaining a good national homeland security also I may add that useless unnecessary spending anything that can hurt the American taxpayer as much as possible must be addressed just as the president is trying to do Americans first!🇱🇷

+Sergio Zayasbazan You’re super gullible.

Twinkie, oh my your spoiling me by the way I remember how sweet those Twinkies used to be😚

Starvation is heading for this country! we have land, natural resources, and the internet to teach us how to do everything. what we don't have, usually, is permission to do whatever it takes to support ourselves.

we all now who is milking the System in Billion a time how many hand outs to the crooks who caused this calamity on purpose 800 Billions of BS bail out crap in just ONE go 13.8 TRILLIONS on another carrier (money for the boys) lets rob the poor to death n call it communism, them Leeches in the government need hunging for what they are doing to America

polygamous1 Sozou yup

@Helen Hines How many kids do you have? Don't have kids if you can't afford them, it's that simple. It's not the taxpayers responsibility to feed your children, you brought them into this world you need to foot the bill for them. I don't feel sorry you due to your lack of common sense. ,

@Helen Hines you should take advantage of the system.

@@avismith6487 go live in the woods then

Completely agree. My employer is not willing to hire full time hours anymore because they refuse to pay for health insurance.

Winston Wilson buisness's saving profit money and causing poverty

Damon Vinson No it will not that’s a bullshit statement, teach your daughters responsible sex by making the low live cap it before he taps it, or better yet do the correct parenting thing give them the pill, or the 5yr shot.Or have mom teach them to swallow, or better yet teach them to sustain until they meet a young man that is responsible by having a job, insurance , 401k and can provide for his spawns. These abusers of the system (the young healthy) can’t work but they can fuck and run around all day on taxpayers money, the gig is up, we the taxpayers are tired of feeding, housing lazy low life’s with no self respect or pride fuck them and anyone who doesn’t believe welfare is for short term help not a fucking career, and this goes for all felons you made your bed by not complying with the law of the land now do you want ketchup with those fries, because that’s your self worth. I know most all felons come from a so called family that was raised on welfare, and mom or dad couldn’t teach you the proper way to survive without government aid, so let’s keep paying cum dumpsters to repeat this cycle by shitting more welfare spawns out for monetary gain with no parents to teach them pride and morals seems it’s worked great the last 49 yrs. NOT

Top breeding, problem solved .

Because we are the ones paying for it and then pay for the medical care from bad health costing the tax payers even more! Also, why is their life crap? Could it be generations of poor decision making. Cycles repeated over and over? Is no one accountable for their own actions any? Guess not.

I have had foul eggs before not good real stinky

How will the people pay for cow's, chickens, seeds, tractors I am and never been on SNAP but I thank if people had the money thy would buy land and have farms

Yes... I live in the city limits... An I'm disabled after a stroke... I have a son... But I'm getting chickens! 🐓🐔🍳And my back yard is going to be completely turned up for our needs vegatables an fruit... 🌟👍🌽🍅🍆🍠🍐🍓🍎

I agree....amen

Corporate agra-cartel are preventing this. Corrupt corporate welfare makes this profitable...through government price supports. It's rigged.

Then we end up paying for them anyway... no win situation.

keith kennedy or maybe they could go to planned parenthood for help with birth control and condoms, oh wait, you don't like that option either do you? Hmmm maybe an abortion? Oh wait, you probably don't like that either?? So now what? The poor don't deserve to have sex? That's what we're talking about?

@@miaharmon1208 yeah kinda no they shouldn't get free birth control or condoms if they cant afford it dont do the act that causes babies plain and simple and no they should not have access to free abortions either

@@miaharmon1208 of course they can have sex. How about being responsible? Oh wait, that’s too hard. Accountability is too hard. Ridiculous

Spoken like a MALE.How many kids have you fathered and abandoned?

sc5252 your fucking stupid

ktm motocross911 ,your don't have to fuck anybody to become stupid or clever except when you want to be a parent.

*****​​ ，besides welfare, there are others where you can spend, eg. Schools, hospitals, infrastructure etc. If you like military spending so much, go ahead n campaign for triple or more military spending. see how many will join you!

But the rich hate us poor people cant stand people that are poor

Job

Carmindy Stevens exactly! However I'd like to see fresh and organic foods more available to the poor rather than vitamins :) pop tarts $2, bag of organic apples $4

WIC only allows for the purchase of certain, healthier foods, why couldn't we just do that with SNAP? People shouldn't be able to buy soda, Lunchables, corn dogs and other such horrible 'food' on everyone else's dime.

Non-organic apples, $2. Bananas, .49/lb. Beans, $1 a can. Plenty of cheaper, healthy options out there, they're just too often ignored.

Carmindy Stevens are you kidding first you gotta get NB Trump to stomp on the liberalism and stop foreign aid to Yemen and Syria wake up!

Mia Harmon good coment

It’s so sad. I hope you are doing better nowadays.

I feel bad for the innocent kids who are born into a no win situation, already disadvantaged right from birth

Maybe they're buying that as a treat to celebrate a birthday, new job, or some other special occasion. Maybe it's marked down significantly because it's a day before the sell by date. Or maybe, it's none of your effing business! I'm not on food stamps (I actually make $200 a month over the limit as a single adult without dependents here in Virginia), but I am low income and I know how to stretch my food dollars- Monday's are the best times to go shopping because they're marking down stuff (including meat) that didn't sell over the weekend and is close to expiring ; I've gotten ground turkey that normally retails $3.50 for a 16 oz. package for $1.77 and I can make several meals out of just two or three packages. I've also gotten chuck steak to make beef stew that way because it's cheaper to buy it as a chunk when it's marked down and cut it up yourself at home than it is to buy pre cut stew meat and I've even seen prime rib and London Broil marked down significantly (and I would've stocked up myself if I had room in my freezer at the time), so I'd be like "Damn these people really know how to shop the sales better than I do!".

@@lindsayschutz it's absolutely my f****** business you twit. Do you wake up on the wrong side of human potential every single goddamn morning of your life or was today just a special occasion? So shut the fuk up

I dont like taxes and wars... and so on.. This has to stop... its the Fuck in government man... it has to stop

sally Sellers poor ass

Educate your self get a better job work harder.

You are the type of person that the program is meant for keep your head held high and look straight ahead they're just telling the Able Body ones free rides over with so again keep your head held high it's not meant to hurt you they know the ones that are working and need assistance and then other ones that are just lazy so stay strong

Whatever. Steak is fine. What qualifies as unhealthyt.

I am all for cutting senseless spending anywhere

we broke a record, had two years in a row of a TRILLION Dollars ( that they publish, in military spending, 8 times more than the 2nd place country which was china i believe.

sc5252 I agree about that. Especially the viagra fund. Who they fuckin?

Im with you on that one....

Thank you Pepe...it's true.

pepe4rock yes that's true and I also live in America as a white person

Most of us would not let someone starve. But those of us from working household, the ones who live within their means and are careful not to have more children than we can afford, are tired of supporting these other people who think it's a free ride and abuse it. It's 'free' food for them, but costs the rest of us. Every dollar that goes to folks who won't care for themselves takes away from someone trying to take care of their own. I am in support of having systems to help those who cannot help themselves, but I am against our current system, which is often abused. In my state, it is legal to buy cigarettes with benefits! That's not right, not right at all, and people who abuse the system like that should be ashamed.

Lisa, no one 'forced' you to be or do anything. So, according to you, you're homeless and starving but don't qualify for benefits, yet here you are, on the internet, replying to things frequently? I don't buy it, your claims don't add up. No one is keeping your from anything but yourself. You want something, go earn it. Services are there for the poor, but if you don't qualify, there's obviously something else going on that you don't wish to disclose. That's fine, it's your business, but stop pretending that America, as a whole, is responsible for your position in life. It's up to you to change it, and services are there and available for people in the position you keep insisting you're in. If you were homeless, you would qualify for certain benefits. Same thing if you were starving. And it doesn't even have to be government assistance- many private entities offer help as well (shelters and food banks). So you can save the boo-hoo, poor me spiel for folks who have any pity for those who won't help themselves. You won't find it with me.

I suggested in another thread that you look up Dave Ramsey. Did you? No, I'm sure not. That would require effort on your part, and you prefer to call people names and place the blame anywhere but on yourself. I answered you quite kindly elsewhere on here and gave you good info to get you pointed in the right direction to better your situation. But it's clear you prefer to wallow and whine. So be it, it's your hide. Nothing else I can do for you, you're too busy throwing yourself a pity-party to find your way up. No one can help you when you won't help yourself, and it's clear you're angry no one will just hand things to you. Your level of feeling on entitlement is mind-boggling.

Well.there are Alot of older people are still working out there.. seriously..

Lmao! Immigrants who don’t pay taxes don’t get “ Obamacare “,which is the Affordable Care Act. It’s true immigrants get some benefits, but the Affordable Care Act costs money, even for citizens. Stop watching FOX Noise

That's the exception not the norm.

and? They're healthy food that lasts a while.

William Straughan why you mad, budget more you can eat good too.

The largest population in the country is WHITE. So they make up the most of everything. Rich, poor, educated, uneducated, healthy, ill, etc. GET IT?

I get SSDI $1200 month pay all my bills. hell I can afford steak you have no one to blame but yourself learn to live within your means

@spirals 73 well maybe the people paying for it are sick of seeing huge baskets of crap and not food

Yeah but look it at the positive view. The tax money supposed to be used to feed people in the country. Do you actually want the government use the public funds aka tax money to go to the middle East & waste it just for what?...nothing!!

Most are

also Lisa Trump has no choice I believe we are in an arm's race with Russia maybe China too especially with the Trump tarrifs on the Chinese things do not look good for 2018

They do

+Concerned Citizen What about the amount of chips, soda, candy, and energy drinks. These are the things I see being bought by EBT card holders in my area.

The type of food people on foodstamps by makes no difference to the issue at hand about a system of dependancy-financially in the United States in general.. Every State recieves a certain amount to be distributed to applicants in need of assistance and each State has different policies and they do have to obide by different federal guidelines as far as income guidelines based off of the federal poverty level..but each State handles their public assistance depending on the State,it just depends...BUT..regaurdless of all of the negative stereotypes and misleading assumptions-MOST people who recieve public assistance DO work..There are strict policies regaurding a persons eligibility and employment is one...Of course yes there ARE alot of lazy people who don't work and sit around and live off the government and abuse the welfare system..but most of those people are commiting fraud by lyeing on their applications etc...There is a gateway to work program attatched to every public assistance program-it varies depending on the State but It's amazing to me how soo many people can judge people because they just go by what they keep hearing over n over n over again about a negative view on the welfare system and people who recieve them-So many people say things like, "I'm sick of working so people on welfare can sit and get free money while I'm working,etc"...and things like what you just said about limiting the TYPEs of food a person can recieve..And again..Coming from a person who has A-been born into poverty and relied on public assistance growing up as a child although my dad was a very hard working single father-and B-I used to work at the Division of Family Resources/(public assistance office)...believe me when i say that the main thought that comes to mind about welfare recipients is a negative, misleading,judgemental stereotype about ALMOST HALF OF ALL AMERICANS..I've seen everything from young college students who were working their way through school and maintaining a home and the cost of tuition and books supplies even after financial aid (if) leaves them applying for public assistance....to mothers(fathers too) of children who got sick and diagnosed unexpectedly with a serious/terminal illness and had to wipe out their savings and basically lost soo much n were again left to apply for medicaid and foodstamps..some families got sick children and require a parent to quit their job to become fulltime caregivers...same for people who have parents they have to be caregivers for etc and people who are suffering disabilities from physical to severe mental illnesses and are unable to work a regular job and applying for disability has become very hard and most people get denied..etc...people who have spouses deployed to fight for our Country...contrary to popular belief soldiers and other military are not rich..the pay is no where near what most people assume it is..unfortunatly..and couples who are/were married for years having a male breadwinner and a homemaker wife(which was originally what welfare was MEANT to support anyway)-mothers who became single or who one or both had got laid off...also take into concideration that a person can work 40hours a week-making minimum wages and recieves under 300a week depending on taxes/deductions...and people(MANY)..actually worked well over 40hours and the overtime barely makes a difference because their taxes increase if wages increase..also most employers offer a less than affordable Insurance IF they offer any..and when the economy is bad it's not just a topic for discussion..It's real life and it affects real people everyday...If i had a dollar for everytime i seen someone walk in to apply for assistance and could barely make eye contact with me and the look of shame and embarassment and eyes filled with tears an it's very sad that ANY person who is in need and is NOT a crook or a person whos just wanting free money-should never be made to feel ashamed of anything...and whats REALLY amazing is when people who are actually concidered below the federal poverty level that have minimum wage paying jobs like a cashier at a gas station(ive heard more than one make a comment about someone using ebt n making remarks like "some of us have to work so people can live off foodstamps with my tax dollars"...or a fastfood and grocery store employees i've heard on more than one occasion make a similar remark"I wish they would let people on welfare work for a day and have to pay taxes so other people can live off the system..or "People on welfare/foodstamps should have to drugtest since i have to work to pay for them!"-...really saddens me to hear how people are truely mistaken when they continue the negative flow/stigma around people who need assistance which is WHY sooo many applicants are ashamed..and to now tell them what KIND of food they're "allowed" to buy?...First of all again there are millons of people who recieve foodstamps and or medicaid/Hip and DO work..probably more than the people judging them..And if a person works as a fastfood worker,cashier,etc..making minimum wage..and they file taxes at the end of the year and fall into a certain tax bracket and get TAX REFUNDS back like MOST do..not even counting having children and recieving the child tax credit..and are not only NOT contributing to government assistance at all but ALOT of the time can claim certain tax exemptions that enables them to GET back more money from the Government than they actually paid through payroll deductions..and of course there are different situations and alot of factors come into play but generally speaking but people are different and some people have also gained custody of one or more child when a family member dies..or some couples lose a spouse either to death or divorce,seperation etc..people get laid off everyday n the numbers are growing..My sister has 4 kids and now is getting Government Assistance untill she geta financially stable...She has always worked at LEAST one job and has been with her childs father for almost 11 years and they built a life based on two incomes including house/car/basic living expenses-gas for the car and gas for home/electric/water/sewege/Car Insurance/Health Insurance and she had worked n went to college a few years ago but it didnt pay off like she thought and the cost of living in general is growing quick-and is now headed for a divorce and its easy for people to say things like "people who have kids and are on welfare shouldnt have kids if they cant support them"-and again..an ignorant assumption that women who fraud the system n have multiple children by multiple men n never work etc-that theyre the majority and what comes to mind when you see a woman with kids using EBT benifits-my sister has been with their father since THEY were kids...hes the only man shes ever even been with and has always worked her ass off..and going through a divorce is like splitting everything you have but still having the same expenses just half of the income now-so shes rearranging her life and was very upset and embarassed and ashamed it seemed to need some help...and to imagine a store clerk judging her like I'm sure many do all EBT cardholders and thinking they have some sort of right to decide WHAT people can eat is ironic and ridiculous because alot of people on benefits have probably paid double the amount of taxes that the people judging them have..You never know what a persons situation is..and for a person who is working a job that barely requires a GED and is not very physically demanding and that falls into a certain tax bracket as I said that actually entitles them to tax REFUNDS ..can so quickly judge a person on foodstamps like theyre somehow superior to them just adding to the stigma..It's a shame..not to mention millions of people/kids with food allergies and limited diets/diabetics/parents of kids with eating disorders-anorexia..but most importantly Public assistance is meant to assist the public as it reads...I have worked my ass off my entire life and had HARD jobs that physically,mentally,emotionally drain me..just like my sister has..and through the years shes already paid more than her fairshare of taxes and I mean shes ACTUALLY contributed when they were married..they bought their own house and took care of my neices n nephews on their own n never asked for anything from anyone..and shes had her world turned upside down n is now preparing for life as a divorced single mother and she got the house so she gets all the bills on her own too..and public assistance was designed specifically for a situation like hers.. and she needs help while shes getting stable single now an shes like millions of other people who are just asking for the help that they PAID for to be there over the years so she can buy a steak and feed it to her dog if she wants..not really but it's just the point..this negative outlook has really got to get better..I really hope morr people will do research before making assumptions based of what theyve heard..

+MizzGreer I think it does. Let me explain. If they spend x amount on pricey items, instead of stretching it to buy basics, they're not going to get very far with it. If they stop buying junk food, but real food staples, they wouldn't have to need to go to soup kitchens and food banks to get real food. It's my simplistic understanding for this issue. It's all about spending wisely. If you can't use food stamp to buy diapers (as per another video I watched), it doesn't make sense to be able to buy luxuries like crab legs and junk food.

Concerned Citizen see stop right there. I pay taxes too and I get foodstamps and if i want to buy a lobster. I have that right. you do not own the food. and. like I said the taxes i pay pay for my foodstamps so who r u to say ppl tht get foodstamps can't buy a lobster????

Concerned Citizen yes people with additudes like yours are a waste of oxygen

Go get the job

@@maesialdc2140 it's not our fault for why your mother was single or how she didn't educate her self to get a better job.

@@Andrew-tk6cd I couldn’t agree more. Today’s unfathered youth have zero accountability or work ethic. Then it falls onto us tax payers. They’re entitled. It pisses me off. No one deserves anything. Not me not you

I JUST REVIEWED THE SOCIAL SECURITY REQUIREMENTS. BEFORE ANY PERSON RECEIVES SOCIAL SECURITY YOU MUST COMPLETE 40 QUARTERS OF EMPLOYMENT. STOP SPREADING LIES AND GET THE FACTS, NO ONE CAN RECEIVE SOCIAL SECURITY UNLESS YOU COMPLETE ABOVE REQUIREMENTS AND HAVE A VALID SOCIAL SECURITY, UNDOCUMENTED WORKERS CAN NOT CLAIM SOCIAL SECURITY.

Undocumented PEOPLE can't get ANY form of public assistance so knock it off.

purewonka If you made enough money you wouldn't care how others spend theirs....I pay my taxes as a productive citizen and trust my government to take care of those in need

@El Tigre: What should we assume when someone has an entire shopping cart filled up with steaks and lobster and whips out an EBT card to pay for it???

purewonka with an ebt card i buy ice cream and soda but i go for items on sale and use manufacturer's coupons because at ralph's the first dollar can be doubled combined with store coupons found in the local paper, oftentimes go for day old bakery items as they are cheaper

purewonka and it shouldn't bother u at all 1 u domt own the damn food. 2 some of us that do get foodstamps earn those foodstamps when we pay our taxes. so. shove it

What about crab legs, lobster tails and ribeye?. I've seen it.

jerry ray not true man. I work yet I get foodstamps. are u paying my way??? no
