Actually, the foodstamp program is a good one. It doesn't cost that much, it helps farmers out, and it is invaluable to a huge portion of the population.
And they get enough that it really doesn't matter what they buy, they will have enough to get through the month. The whole concept of making them purchase crappy food because they're on foodstamps is just segregation, class warfare. You have no idea how difficult it is for some families who can't afford to give their kids a treat once in a while, or buy a store-bought birthday cake if the kid wants one.
I've gotten to the place where I actually would rather make the kids' cakes, though, even though we can get store-bought fancy ones. I just don't LIKE those cakes. And there's the whole process of making the cake, it's always a hoot. And my cakes are sooooooo good. BTW I recommend the Hershey's cocoa chocolate icing on the back label of the can. It's YUMMY and incredibly easy...
ANyway, Shogun..I wouldn't get all het up about dismantling the foodstamp program just yet. It would put people out of work, hurt the ag industry, and people really would starve.
CLASS WARFARE? Tell me, Baba.. what CLASS are we validating to live off of tax money? sorry, i'm just not interested in hearing about how abused food stamps keeps profits at KRAFT higher than normal. When Taxes are the lubrication of a fucked up cycle that perpetuated poverty while pretending that ghettos are not gangland while actking like nbame brands MUST have welfare support to survive You are just going to have to deal with little things like UAs for welfare recipients. Like I said, THIS is coming. You know it as well as I do.
