(Not sure where to put this, but mods can move it.)

Welfare beneficiaries will get half their monthly SNAP benefit for November. Let’s see how, with responsible choices, they can stretch that out. For purposes of this exercise, let’s say it’s a single mother with two little kids, who normally gets $750 a month. So…..how can she stretch the $375 for this month?

1) Four packages of chicken (16 main meals) at $35
2) Two pounds of ground beef (8 mains) @ $15
3) Box of spaghetti and sauce (4 mains) @ $5
4) 3 bags of frozen veggies @ $10
5j 10 cans of fruit @ $15

All dinners: $80 total

1) 2 Dozen eggs @ $8
2) Two boxes cereal @ $5
3) Juice carton @$4 (mix with water to stretch it out)
4) 3 gallon of milks (not sure, let’s say $10)
5) Package of cheese @ $3
6) Two loafs of bread $8

All breakfasts: $40

Kids get free lunches, so for Mom only (and weekends for kids)

1) Five tuna cans @ $10
2) Another loaf of bread @ $4
3) mayo @ $3
4) packages of sliced Turkey and bologna @ $10
5) apples, bananas, whatever, let’s say another $15

Lunches: $42

All basic meals: $162

Add in another $40 for pudding snacks, jello, bags of chips, etc., etc.

Still comes in around $200 for a basic “charity” diet for November.

Trump says SNAP will be half funded in November. What does that mean?

When will SNAP benefits arrive for November and other things to know

Many of these moms on social media have acrylic nails, lash extensions, tattoos, and other luxuries (and yes, if you are taking other people's money, I consider those luxuries).

I just retired, and we are comfortable (all glory to God), but even I do not get regular manicures or other expensive optional treatments.

Prove it

The odds are pretty good that some of them are on food stamps and section 8 housing

 

[SweetSue92]

If only they had chosen not to be born poor amirite!

The children don't make that choice, no. But an adult in America does not have to remain poor, barring health conditions, etc.

If they wanted to, Democrats could fund the SNAP program tomorrow.
But, no, they demand the GOP cave into adding $1.5T to the debt, repealing some of the BBB spending guns, and accept legal restrictions on what the president can do with government employees and funds.

Anyone telling you the shutdown is due to the GOP knows they are lying to you.

“According to court documents, the defendants (including owners and employees of five separate business in San Francisco) conspired to fraudulently obtain government benefits from the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (“SNAP,” formerly referred to as “food stamps”). The City of San Francisco, State of California, and federal government provide SNAP benefits to qualified recipients in the form of electronic benefits transfer cards (commonly referred to as “EBT” cards), which can be used to purchase eligible food items. In these criminal cases, the defendants are alleged to have conspired together to obtain EBT cards from program recipients, and then process fraudulent transactions at various retail stores. The defendants would then split the proceeds of these fraudulent transactions 50/50 between themselves and the program recipients.”

Maybe do something about an economy where 12% are that poor.

Even when Democrats brag about how good their economy is, 12% are still poor.

Give em beans, pork, rice, maybe some cheap beef potatoes cheese, some fiber supplements, a nice muliti vitamin.

The best balanced nutrition our industry has to offer

Our maybe seeings how everyone loves chinese products we can pay the chines to make welfare nutrition bars. We can be real charitable and make 5 or 6 flavors

The point of the OP is that they DON’T have to eat cheap. We could cut the SNAP payments by half, and they still have money left over - IF they choose wisely.

But Trump needs his marble walled toilet. Ok.

 

[Lisa558]

Looks like they’re going to have to cut back on the steak and lobster they’ve been feasting on at our expense.

Not really…..there’s still $175 left over from the basic menu.

 

[Lisa558]

Welfare bums know that they can buy the costly stuff (lobster) with SNAP and still go to the charity food banks for the rest

Plus children get free lunches at school

So dont expect to see dead bodies in the streets anytime soon unless they are overdosing on drugs

Yes, that’s the other thing: when a girl in her 20s with two illegitimate children, and no father chipping in, gets $750 a month, that’s on top of the fact that the kids get free lunches.

Like what? They’re poor because they had multiple children out of wedlock and got no job training.

 

[Lisa558]

Great Society has failed......

Depends on your goal. If the idea was to keep people poor and dependent, and voting for Democrats, it worked

You mean the ballroom? That’s coming out of private funds.

Now do Obama

No the Lincoln bedroom toilet.

Plus those Billionaire tax breaks. Plus $40Bn to Argentina - what the hell?
