Re: I'm tired of people putting down people on food stamps
if some of you had to do a hard days work or any manual labor it would fucking kill your sorry asses

how about trading places with a poor person for a few days

contact me and i'll set it up between you and some of the poor people around here
and then come back here and tell us all about it
come on you want to bitch about it give it a fucking try

COME ON DOWN!!!
 Quoting: goincrazy


Lol. I did manual labor from 18-24 and I wasn't on fucking food stamps. Got paid only 15 bucks an hour for two years. Was a fair wage for the brainless work that I did. If you want more money you'll have to actually show some initiative, instead of crying for the government to feed your fat ass. I paid my way through school with the little amount of money I was saving because I knew that I needed to work towards a better standard of living. It's called not being lazy and having some ambition.

Re: I'm tired of people putting down people on food stamps
Morgan Spurlock, the guy who made "super size me", did a short lived series. One episode showed him and his wife living on min wage for 30 days. Started with nothing exept a weeks pay each, comparable to what min wage paid. Some people have no idea what the poor go through.
It was avaliable on Netflix and Im almost certain its called 30 Days.

Re: I'm tired of people putting down people on food stamps
you know, some people really need them. what about cases of parents with small children who have both lost their jobs. i'm sick of people saying people on food stamps are losers, or they just want handouts, or whatever. yea, some people dont deserve them, but some people really need the help.

Re: I'm tired of people putting down people on food stamps
There has always been a man who will hate to see others or any other be given any thing.

They would even say ..."nobody ever gave me anything".
"I had to work and slave my hard road for what I have nobody helped me."

No matter how much they were given or had they still were disgruntled. It made giving them any thing harder because of their murmuring at every one who got just as they did.

All you could do with these was say to your self do what was is right and go on let it go.....Some states of mind and personal perspectives are set in stone and hardened by their very first years of life before they were even 9 years old.....So see them as a stuck mind in a rut and treat them like the others with out holding it against them.

Yes we have welfare crime and abuse rampant and even to give way for users to come in an the way was made for them to come was the welfare scam way the government set up for them.

It never was the people who set these ways not the citizens it was those who were luring and calling to the wild to come through the gates they set that never close.

It makes no difference if they beat a lame horse or a broken down mare with a crowbar or tongue...even to lay them low or down or into death.

The ones who set to system will not stop the flow of nor the way until it completes their aims and principles and this repopulating for the depopulating they have caused by their own system set ups.

Yet the worst offender to offend the poorest and hardest hit ones by the System Plumbers the ones who Monkey the Wrench to and into the systems....

Was those who are so gross of mind and thought that they stood to bellow out the food stamps are taken by those who are damned by them from the mark of the beast that comes with them......these speaking lunatics from hell were bringing many to look at some one that can not make bread for them selves and see them as the marked damned of soul people.

When there is but one who judges all men and their soul is not for any many to judge and damn.....yet they say the food stamp office damns these souls with a food stamp mark of the beast.

Can you imagine going to a grocery store and on old widow woman standing in line to pay for her measly food to live from and not starve to death....

And the idiots in the line spot her and see her as a damned one marked for damnation a walking hell meat human. The most hopeless a full void of hope human meat woman.

Now imagine what she would feel like just to try and cash in her $18.00 a month food stamps for food to keep her from starving. And this woman had been explained to be her friendly fellow Christan from hell on a TV or what ever way she was USD stamped and approved hell meat made for hell and passed into hell by their inspection and judgement.


They should say and they will get your little dog to because they put the marker under its skin so some one will find it when it gets lost and bring it back to its hell home and keeper..

What a bright bright sun shiny day this woman's days would be....what a ray of hope what uplifting rays of hope we sow and shed upon others..

And the old women gets sick and not able to remember her medications one form another and crawls down into a cistern and drowns her self.....who knows where she thought she was when she was found way to late.

But they said she went to hell for committing suicide and I am like well so what the ones who helped her already by others opinions sent her to hell before she died..

So there you say she gets hell twice....sure that is what you say.

But truly it was the government that fed that poor woman and actually had care sent to her but she wandered in a acute time not foreseen yet I have to say the food stamp office gave to her and helped her when her own people did not..The very ones who are to help only helped to hurt her mind and heart and scare her and degraded her further.

It can always get worse we just try not to tell our selves that.

But yes it is a reality of hard facts it can always get worse so long as anything still exists.

But why make it worse.....we can not run this system we can only try to endure it.


It pays to when looking out for your self and others to look for that which is very very undesirable in effects even though it is not as of yet...but as though it could be.....this is a perverted way to most to look for that which is evil and unwanted so they do not see it off from them because they do not want it or desire it they even fear it so they will not turn their face to face it....they just turn their backs as though it will not ever be and never see it coming for them or in their way they go.


In other words to look ahead in a narrow view only looking for that which is good for you........Dumbs our brains down and blinds us from seeing the evil that lays ahead of the paths our feet are treading down or in the way so to say....We have to consider all through the lens of what is best for not just our selves but others as well.Because what is getting them may be the evil we are in our own selves but not done in yet from it not seized in a trap a pit by it yet.

Because it is how we saw the way for others and how we effected the way for others that we our selves will be judged for in the end. If what we are doing is going to hurt or harm those not guilty of anything we are in big trouble. If we lay open wide the area for the devil to have its hay day upon others we are the keeper that gave the way to the devil to play...basically how we gave way we saw it as and for others to give to them as their way was and is rendered back unto us because we were making it and it is placed and takes its effects on all and any even the ones who made it...it just is not their time and stage to fall into it yet.

Lord knows many many suffer daily and He pets us when no one else does. In some of the most unexpected or even seen ways.

But it does require us to feel and see a petting or it would be as though it was not at all or ever.

Who pets who?
Who pets you?

In all we do ..do it as though you will stand to give account for it. Judge your self at all costs judge your self in the time allowed for you to make that judgement.

We just have to change our ways at some point in time but make sure you are doing it for good and not bad.

There is a double edged sword and it is used in this habitat we are in...it can give to unjust it can give to just it can give evil it can give good. It is balanced and balanced is sound enough to keep unbalance from tipping any over. Keep a healthy balance try not to absorb to much in either way or the way becomes a trap a pit a rut.

But it is up to us to decide which side we take this sword.

Best to not take it at all and block the side that is evil from impact by shielding it from us....

Do not work or toil at things that you can not change or reach..they are set off from us for a reason.

It is up to us to work around and out side the barriers and obstacles....make a happy place or a content place even in a heap of ashes...it does not help to cure an ill when they thing or way that gives or causes the ill is not see or understood as the giver of the ill....we are then just cured to ill our selves again over and over and over never freed completely....by curing the ill we continue our cycle over and over and over never ending.

We heal and cure rot in that heap with a mind that says I saw happiness I know what happiness is but happiness will never cure my contention of soul....so happiness is just an emotion a flowing thing that starts and stops and contention was there always even when happiness stops...just like love......whats love of mans own natural mind to anything but a flow of emotion it has no sound anchor at all for it is not anything of its own self.

love is not as man perceives love because there is a peace that passes understanding and that is where love abides. It is content in any state even when it sees much evil all around it.

It just sees it out side its self and this frees its mind to remain sound and balanced in its own judgments and discerning of what all it perceives its own self... as that which is not its own nor does it receive it. It just keeps its gates locked and leaves it out side the gates.....and does as it does and sees as it sees and not as a sponge soaking up what all is around it into and unto its own self.

No dry sponge keep your own self filled with your choice of water you choose to take in so its just your water and not concoction of mingled up mish mash muddy water....always raging water raging through you making ripples and roaring waves and taking your own mind with it into chaos....keep it out of your mind even if you see it and know it see it and know it out side our own self as abstract from you...put off from you.....put away from you.

Flip your world you out of it and it out of you but both looking at each other through a sheet of glass barrier a dividing line. You see and know and think and decide on that which is but not apart of "you" it is all just before you even around you even surrounds you....who remain separated from it even though you are where all else is it.

By mind by heart by soul you are separated but here...you are but you are not so carry on your way.

Sorry OP but if you think food stamps is meant to be a way of life then you are a mooch and a leech.

However if people use them as intended, to be a short term solution then i have no problem.

Welfare is not a job and food stamps are not a life style.

Re: I'm tired of people putting down people on food stamps
Social programs are needed but shouldn't be permanent for the person that is receiving them unless you are disabled or have some sort of mental illness of course and should be used as a hand up not a hand out. Many people don't understand this and abuse the program for people who really need it.

You should be tired of buying the government and the bankers their suites, and $40,000 plate dinners. What kind of a heart do you have?

"any.services I may receive are paid by me."

If you can afford to pay it, why would you receive "services"? You think welfare is a service, like getting your clothes dry-cleaned, something that you should pay for? If you can pay for it, you don't need it. You think poor people have never worked a day in their lives or paid taxes? Lol. And you admit that you do receive some of that welfare yourself, after all. The American economy (including your paycheck) is all an artificial social construct. Like Obama said: you didn't build it. Hurts to hear that, but it's unfortunately the truth (probably one of the few times he hasn't lied to us). I'm sure his intent was merely to brag about the government's supposed omnipotence, but he inadvertently revealed the truth of the matter.

as long as someone does not use the system for a free ride than I am totally convinced that everyone here agrees to help the truly needy.

if you feel that people who look for a job with nose-rings, smelly and purple hair, torn and dirty clothes should be accepted by everyone as needy, because no one wants to employ them, than I agree to exclude them from aid, as they bring the problems on themselfes.

Re: I'm tired of people putting down people on food stamps
This is an interesting thread. Easy to see both sides and understand where each is coming from. Guess in the end, when it all runs out, it will be up to each individual to decide what they can or will do.

There was a time when people helped people. Guess so many got sick of seeing the abusers of the system flaunting it that it's hurt those that are truly needy.

My Grandma used to feed "bums". That's what people called them then. The homeless, traveling through, with a humble attitude and little else. They'd come to farmers doors and ask if they had any job they could do for a meal.

Grandma always fed them and always treated them with dignity. Most she let in the house to eat; some she told to have a seat on the porch and she'd bring them something. Others, she had sit on the porch and told me to stay in the other room til they were gone.

When I asked why, she said some men talk rough and little girls don't need to hear it. Eavesdropper that I was, no rough talk ever caught my ears, but now I realize it was a "sense" she had as to whether or not someone could be trusted.

She never turned anyone away and those who came left with a full stomach and a meal to take with them.

Guess when the time comes, I already know what I'll do. Suggest everyone give it some thought because sooner or later, there will be people who have nothing but their faith and the good will of others.

Also, not only do I choose not to prostitute myself in any way, but I don't even accept Food Stamps because I want NOTHING to do with the criminal government.

I live on a tiny retirement (just over $100 a month) and food that I get free from a food bank which picks up groceries that would otherwise be thrown in the GARBAGE.

YET, I do not resent people in need who are getting the help they deserve. What I dislike, is the hypocrisy of people who dare to look down on Food Stamp recipients while they are themselves getting even better privileges and favoritism from Government.

Re: I'm tired of people putting down people on food stamps
This is an interesting thread. Easy to see both sides and understand where each is coming from. Guess in the end, when it all runs out, it will be up to each individual to decide what they can or will do.

There was a time when people helped people. Guess so many got sick of seeing the abusers of the system flaunting it that it's hurt those that are truly needy.

My Grandma used to feed "bums". That's what people called them then. The homeless, traveling through, with a humble attitude and little else. They'd come to farmers doors and ask if they had any job they could do for a meal.

Grandma always fed them and always treated them with dignity. Most she let in the house to eat; some she told to have a seat on the porch and she'd bring them something. Others, she had sit on the porch and told me to stay in the other room til they were gone.

When I asked why, she said some men talk rough and little girls don't need to hear it. Eavesdropper that I was, no rough talk ever caught my ears, but now I realize it was a "sense" she had as to whether or not someone could be trusted.

She never turned anyone away and those who came left with a full stomach and a meal to take with them.

Guess when the time comes, I already know what I'll do. Suggest everyone give it some thought because sooner or later, there will be people who have nothing but their faith and the good will of others.

Re: I'm tired of people putting down people on food stamps
Some people DO need them.

Years ago me and my husband had no choice. He got hurt at work, and because of BS and paperwork it took over 2 months before workers comp paid anything. So, for those two months we got food stamps - about 650 for me, him and our two children. Not proud of it no, but thank goodness we had that.

Re: I'm tired of people putting down people on food stamps
I think a banker buying a Mercedes with a bailout bonus, when the company he runs lost enough money to need a bailout, is some of the slimiest shit I have ever seen.
Tyrone and a pack of Newports on his EBT isnt even close.
16 trillion missing from the Fed, AND 16 trillion in debt, but you better keep your eyes on ole Tyrone.

Re: I'm tired of people putting down people on food stamps
Why haven't the people of the world decided to judge the world the same way they'd judge their household. Does everyone have a safe place to sleep? Does everyone have enough to eat? If as a world we can be humble enough to devote our time and energy to solve problems regarding distributing food, water, shelter, sanitation, health care we'd have far less time to fight over stuff and have people needlessly die.

They want us to act and worry like animals so they can keep control over us. They want us to expect less of them so they can keep badly distributing resources so people can cash in on the truly needy.

The entire human race should be judged by the person in the least fortunate position in life. As soon as every human has food, shelter, water, sanitation, and health care security human consciousness as a whole would be so much higher and we'd be able to sole so many more problems.

Glad you had that experience. What a blessing Grandma's like that were...and are. They may leave but the lessons they taught while they didn't know we were watching, will live forever.

Re: I'm tired of people putting down people on food stamps
I get 35$ per month. And here is why, I got sick and tired of seeing Arabs, Negroes, Latinos and White trash at the check out line with 800 - 1200$ per month in food stamps while I have a degree in Computer Engineering, Psychology and a Doctorate of Medicine and earn 8$ per hour and have to eat food from the day old shelf. The Negress working on the checkout lane at Walmart told me she gets 800$ per month in food stamps and ends up selling stuff from her card to make money! There is a free for all here in Shitagan (formerly Michigan) with foreign nationals raping the local economy. I know of an Arab family that has 2 doctors living in the house and that family is getting Full financial aid from the state !!! They get jobs in the Welfare system and then they lie and cheat like hell to get their other friends and recent immigrants on state aid illegally. I had a white lady friend that worked in the welfare office in Dearborn and they literally made life hell for her to get her to move to another office. Reporting fraud is a joke as the investigators will be black and will just toss the complaint in the garbage. The days of chivalry are long gone and you have to be retarded to think that is is beneath you to get aid. If you qualify for food stamps, then you do need them as your wage is going to be poverty level. People buy cigarettes and liquor also on food stamps by just getting to know the store clerks. They scan a food item on the card but give the person a pack of smokes. I used to see people lined up down the block in 3rd world countries at the local banks only to discover that they were cashing US Social Security checks !!!!. There are more foreigners getting US Soc Sec checks than people in the USA !!!!! You will never hear of this on the media.
