While we are in the process of shaming those who need food stamps, do we also get to publicaly shame employers who don't pay enough so their employees can feed their families?
How about a big sign that says...
I work for WalMart and I need Food Stamps
Get a job that pays better, or adjust your lifestyle to meet your current level of employment.
How many of those people on foodstamps working at wal-mart have a car? a cell phone? a big screen TV?
Why don't you get a better job?
Yeah, let's mock the working poor because they have a car...
...this is what the Right in this country has been reduced to.
I dont need a better job, I'm not on the dole.
I studied, worked hard, got an engineering degree and a good job, and support myself. Government support to me was limited to student loans which I paid/am paying back. a $500 pell grant, and the free rail/bus transit I got as a student in NYC.
Considering I have lived in NYC my whole life, I have paid back the free transit, and I have more than paid back the pell grant.
