Isnt it Ironic

[Lovebears65]

Isn't It Ironic? The food stamp program, part of the Department of
Agriculture, is pleased to be distributing the greatest amount of food
stamps ever.

Meanwhile, the Park Service, also within of the Department of
Agriculture, asks us to "please do not feed the animals" because the
animals may grow dependent and not learn to take care of themselves

 

[Mr Natural]

So what are you saying, you want people to go out in the woods and forage for food?

I must question why that is the ONLY option there is in your eyes.
Do you conmsider those on food stamps unable to come up with better ideas than foraging for food?

My son asked for more spending money while in college....just last week. I told him to find a better way to come up with the money.

By Yesterday he had three choices.....all were paying $12 an hour and offering him as many hours as he wanted.

Amazing how humans can be creative and make things happen when their sugar daddy says "no".

Figuratively.... yes






Now do I want truly destitute people to go w/o food... NO.

Some 'animals' need care... they are physically unable to feed themselves.
Then again, look into the new HC bill and they should be given a pill so they can die off quicker.

Nobody is supposed to notice that...

Bravo to you and your boy.

Great lesson to learn early in life for him.

Speaking of ironic...

The President claimed, at his nomination, that this would be “the moment when the rise of the oceans would begin to slow and our planet begin to heal.”
Barack Obama’s victory speech, June 3, 2008

But he can't slow the rise of gas prices....

because the
animals may grow dependent and not learn to take care of themselves

More precisely, the Gator / Grisly may decide to take care of who did not feed him the next time around ... or the next guy coming up the trail.

Wild animals will find a way to eat one way or another. Usually to the detriment of another animal.

Or even one of us if we're in the wrong place at the wrong time.

The Park Service is part of the Dept. of the Interior. Who knows how much fallacious information you've been posting. Do you even have a son?

He could if he wanted to.

Rising gas prices are important for the healing of the planet.

The increased price of energy will lead to less use of resources.

It will also lead to more starvation, but that again means fewer people using up the planet's resources.


He has this wrapped up from many angles.

If one piece of false info is given, how are we to trust anything? OK, I'll address the message. The richest and most well-fed country in the world, shouldn't have anyone in need of food. The OP assumes anyone getting food stamps is a freeloader. I paid taxes all my life, if I needed them why shouldn't I be able to get them? That's the same argument the "Stop socialism, but don't touch my Medicare" crowd uses!

So are these food stamps still given out in a paper form? Or is it now called, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program?

Try Arizona for death by government and the GOP.
It's a sure bet.

Nowhere is she saying that those on food stamps are free loaders.

The argument is all about self reliance. Many dont realize all of the "outs" they have at their disposal when the "easiest out" is available to them...and pushed on them through political rhetoric.

And by the way...with or without foodstamps, no one goes hungry in this great nation. There are plenty of charities funded by Americans that offer meals to those that need it.

Foodstamps, however, give politicians something to campaign with.

oh i will. Every fucking moron knows you dont feed the animals because then it becomes a habit for them to come up to camp sites and take food. Which in a lot of cases are Bears. Which would lead to attacks on people, and possible deaths. Then you will stupid emotion out cries to kill off the bears because the dumb shits decided it would be cute to feed them a sandwich.

Furthermore the OP is once again showing how fucking stupid she is by attempting to make a connection between the two. This is what you get when you have "low-rent" people trying to be the crank. You get stupid comments when in reality they should be laughed off.

This coming from a lady ( OP ) who doesn't pay taxes anyways so she really has no skin in the game.

Aren't you one of the herd who claims that humans are just animals anyway?

Funny thing...when a liberal speaks you are the first to insist it not be taken out of context.

When anyone else speaks...it must be taken literally.

The point she is making is real. I see it first hand. Make someone fend for themselves and you know what?

They do.

They do.

One way or another they do.

Usually by legal, productive means.

Sometimes otherwise.

And I don't care to be on the receiving end of that "otherwise".
