Day 2: nobody's starved

[Etymology gaslight]

except congress holds the paycheck purse.
Not the president or supreme court.

In california its looting up to 900$
without permission
which is kind of a lost art.

In California its a $950 limit. How someone shoplifts that much is beyond me. Unless they make multiple trips or have big-ass pockets.

Sigh, yet another days passes.

Groceries.

Groceries.

Groceries? Sounds like 3, maybe 4 shopping carts of groceries.

Looks like Schumer's bluff ain't working. What would democrats do if the media suddenly became honest and stopped being shills for the democrat party?

Every gop guest on the Sunday shows were asked about the shutdown and all said the ball was in the vile dem's court.

The MSM tried twisting and turning it but failed miserably.

SNAP benefits "aka the gravy train" came to an end yesterday (at least, the federally funded benefits did). States have had to step up and perhaps - will even have to eliminate a bit of their bureaucracy in order to keep payments flowing.

As best I can tell:
1. Nobody has starved yet (despite doom and gloom predicted from the democrats)

2. Chuck Schumer is still responsible for this government shutdown.

I was expecting gaunt poor dead people strewn on the streets of inner-city shitholes without being shot.

That would be an average week in San Francisco.

Well, if we’re going to be that literal nobody starves in just two days anyway

Well, given that the average SNAP recipient could live off their body fat for a couple months or better I suspect that's true.

Body Fat Percentage: Individuals with higher body fat percentages have more energy reserves. For example, a person weighing 200 pounds with 25% body fat has about 50 pounds of fat, equating to approximately 175,000 calories. This can theoretically sustain them for about 117 days if their daily caloric expenditure is around 1,500 calories.

Just don't get that metabolic rate up by protesting/looting.

It is amazing one can buy soda, candy, and Twinkies with EBT.

Technically they can't. But there are ways. Burger joints do have signs EBT accepted here. Anything is possible?

They will stop paying water Electric garbage and rent. Must buy Cheetos and Diet MTN Dew. Dare them to cut them off or evict them. They gotta eat. They need them Newports and Ripple.

I went shopping for food to put into the food bank collection boxes at the grocery, so no perishables, no produce or meat or dairy, and I FILLED the cart for under $300.

Since 2020 riots and Flu + $6 gas, I cant go out of the door of the house for less than $40-$100. I don't know how any poor with kids could ever get by?

Many are still helping their own 40 yr old "kids" with $10,000 cash per year to pay CA rent or car costs. It is a massive mess the deep state has created.

 

[Captain Creeper]

Nobody starves in 2 days, kid.

According to the Dems, all poor people died 2 weeks ago.

1. You don't know that.
2. Republicans are being blamed for the shutdown.

GOP are being blamed for the shutdown by leftist retards, so it’s irrelevant.
