The gov't is flush with cash, look at the number of families that receive food stamps, free housing, free medical.

Food banks, cathodic charities, all states are there to help those in need.

An earlier poster mentioned food banks, I agree with him over the years I have spent thousands buying food from some local wholesale club and donating it to the food bank.

To me this means much more than to handout free cash. But then I never asked for anything from anyone. I worked to pay for college, I work to support my family.

The extras go to local needs. I am no way trying to be a smart ass, but with to numerous agencies willing to help immediately, why come to a website like this hoping to cash in?

You also mention a 9 month old, where to the child's other parent. Your parents?
