Anonymous Coward User ID: 72119498 United States 05/22/2017 03:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am for doing good to the poor, but...I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it. I observed...that the more public provisions were made for the poor, the less they provided for themselves, and of course became poorer. And, on the contrary, the less was done for them, the more they did for themselves, and became richer. Quoting: LunaticFringe Benjamin Franklin While I agree that some need to be prodded to become self-sufficient, the majority are trying to become self-sufficient but have to fight all the forces that lack of money brings to one's life. I remember the mother who couldn't afford childcare, who had an interview for a good job. But she had a 7-year-old (or around about that age). She parked the car and went into the job interview. She got arrested for leaving her kid in the car. Jail time, a criminal record, loss of her child to children's protective agency, etc., etc. I'm pretty sure she was using food stamps. It is people like that who should be helped, not continually screwed because they don't have enough money. They shouldn't be flooded with money either. Some people who spent their whole life having nothing can't handle a windfall. But they should have resources to make it easier to care for their children and put food on the table while they effort to establish or re-establish a life for themselves. There are all kinds of traps for people who have limited resources. Heck, some people can become homeless because of a traffic ticket fee. It's just that rough sometimes. |

THEN go on to stop welfare. And please ...no one should have to go to a church & beg for food or clothing ect...are you kidding me? Nor to their families for food & care, there is enough money to help all our people here (And I can guarantee you I'm so not liberal) I'm fair. For one why make the churches wealthy again? Not everyone believes in that nonsense churches shove down your throats. And two, not everyone's family takes care of their own...this is the real world.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 27649888 United States 05/22/2017 03:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Read the fine print, it gives more power to the states to handle their own local programs and welfare and will likely lead to a tightening up on who's eligible for such services and for how long, etc. If you're able bodied and not willing to work for years at a time and you're collecting govt benefits, you're taking them away from people who likely need them more. |

Quoting: Loops So you believe that our checks will grow from them cutting benefits. That's laughable. Also, for all who have criticized welfare recipients, do you not realize that these are seniors who lack enough money for food, and for those still feeling the burn from the last 8 years? I am going to be very careful about what I say about this food stamp matter, as I might end up in that situation. Also, those on high horses should realize that pretty soon, the food supply will be cut off for all of us. Wake up. See the signs that are before us. We're almost there. If I wasn't taxes so much I would have more to donate to the needy. It's ridiculous that we send 2 dollars to the feds to get 50 cents worth of impact. |

Maga Trump’s plans to cut food stamps could hit his supporters hardest President Trump’s anticipated cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, better known as food stamps, will likely be felt most in regions of the country with chronic high rates of unemployment — from the rural Southeast to aging manufacturing towns to Indian reservations.

Should just crack down on the idiots buying all the junk food imo. Thoughts? Food stamp and Medicaid enrollees skyrocketed during Obama's reign. I don't know the exact figures on Medicaid, but it was massively expanded through Obamacare. Food stamps doubled under Obama because not only did his economy suck ass, but his administration specifically targeted it for expansion and heavily advertised it like a business trying to grow. Having to rely on government to eat use to be an embarrassing shame to anyone who legitimately needed that much help. Obama made it sound like a healthy natural lifestyle that everyone should participate in. This commercial is from 2012. The food stamp program doubled because they wanted it too.
