Is that your take?
No one said so.
Is that your take?
Get off your high horse winehole and quit alleging substance in my posts that I didn't put there myself.
You posted the vids.
without editorial content.
That was your reaction to the news that record numbers of Americans use food stamps. It was revealing.
lol hiding behind your own post, and pretending to be not responsible for it because you didn't say anything.
lol at you making broad totally baseless assumptions.
pretty adolescent...even for cc.
I had more to go on than you did.
I did. I wasn't being sarcastic. I was being serious.
^^^appreciate the clarification. It can be hard to tell who's being facetious and who's being sincere sometimes.
Of course some people are going to abuse it. Doesn't mean we have to throw the millions of people who are legimitately using it under the bus.
Who was advocating throwing the millions of truly needy under the bus?
I will say that I do think that the amount awarded for food stamps is far too high. I have a friend who was on food stamps, single guy, and he got 252 a month. What single person needs that much money for groceries every month? Crazy. My wife spent a short time on food stamps when she lost her job about a month after we started dating. She has a kid. For the two of them she was given over 400 dollars. WTF!
Seems like you were trying to discredit the public program serving them. If you weren't, just say so.
Like I said, making broad, baseless assumptions.
Well... that certainly seems like the implication of your mockery.
252 for groceries works out to 64 dollars a week or under 10 dollars a day for groceries. You really think that's outlandish?
I expect baseless, irrational, stereotypical, stupid assumptions from you, but normally not from Winehole.
lolz. I see. I'm not up to your usual high standards of discourse, huh?
If you didn't mean to discredit food stamps and food stamp users, just say so.
Yes. I feed a family of four (well) for 350 a month. We only have steak every several weeks, but we eat better than we need to. My friend routinely had half (or more) of his monthly allotment left.
i spend that on herbs and es alone.
I don't buy expensive groceries, but I spend 50-60 a week easily. And thats without any fresh produce and does not cover every meal by any means. One thing that you probably don't take into consideration is how much cheaper groceries are in San Antonio. In NM, groceries are so much more expensive its not even funny. I thought it might be a Santa Fe thing since that is a fairly expensive place to live but even in Albuquerque its still very pricey.
