Not everyone has a family member to help them and I agree deadbeats that refuse to do their part should be forced to do so but that doesn't always work that away. Between non payment and someone in the collection bureau making off with that tiny bit of monthly child support my children were supposed to get I was shorted over forty grand. It could have been collected but the person in charge of doing that refused do to local political bs were we lived back then. So if everyone isn't doing their part then everyone else suffers for it but it shouldn't be the poor that do more suffering.Have you tried applying for disability? You are unable to work, they deny you and tell you good luck, see you in a few YEARS with your appeal. As to the budget, yep, just heard it on TV.
You heard what? Did you read the budget or are you listening to some talking head tell you what they want you to hear so you will get your "butt hurt" in an uproar?
Disability has nothing to do with food stamps which is a function of Social Security.
Go apply for disability.
That has NOTHING to do with food stamps! Why are you pressing this point which is obviously wrong?
It has to do with living. What none of you people seem to understand is that food stamps barely pays for food, but you can still be disabled and not qualify for disability. Or it can take years of jumping through hoops before they qualify you. Meantime the bills are still coming in. Too many people here with opinions on things they know nothing about.
What the heck does disability have to do with food stamps? Nothing! They are not even remotely related! Why can't you see that?
My daughter has two boys and a deadbeat for an ex-husband. In the past 8 years he has contributed almost nothing while I helped fed and clothe my grandsons. They were on food stamps for a while, so I am well familiar with the topic. Think single moms with kids do better than those on disability?
I think we should lock these deadbeats up and put them to work on a daily work release program so they can earn money to pay their required support. But then again, I just pay his bills directly and those other deadbeats through my tax dollars. When do I get a break?
