A few years ago (maybe ten) while standing on line with my wife
the women in front of us, her pager went off,she then called someone with her cell phone and paid for her groceries with food stamps.. Outside she entered her BMW and drove off...Enough
poor my ass..Bad system, sends the wrong message to people.
Should be no food stamps don't remember them back in the early 60's the poor back then were given food by the church I know as I had a car in 1965 and delivered the food for the school.
Churches still give out food.
What's your point about the pager and cell phone? Most people have them these days. They're not expensive. How do you know that isn't the only phone she has? I know my husband and I forego a land line phone in favor of a cell phone for each of us. It costs about the same, and is more flexible and useful.
And completely aside from any other details about her car (such as how old it was, how do you know she didn't inherit it from a family member, maybe she bought it and paid it off before falling on hard times, etc.), how do you know what she was driving? And why?
For the record, the current Food Stamp program began in the early 1960s. You probably don't remember them because they were just getting started.
