I have had some folks come up to me recently trying to sell me food stamps it's crazy.

This drives me nuts. The only worse thing to me is the people that blow them on crazy stuff life steak and lobster. When I worked at Costco people would get made when they couldn't buy energy drinks or alcohol on EBT(AZ food stamp card). I wanted to knock their heads off. It is crazy the 100s of dollars they get. It's not even a reasonable amount. Passed a 7-11 a while back that said now accepting EBT cards. It's no wonder obesity is worst among the poor.

Also consider this last census of the US.
White 69.1%
Black 12.1%
Asian 3.6%
Hispanic or Latin 12.4%

But when you look at it the percentage of people by total amount of people its looks like there are more white people but of the 4.3 million people in the US on welfare 39.8% are black thats about 1.7 million, 38.8% are white thats about 1.6 million.

Then if you take that and compare the numbers to the total population 1.7 million out of 38 million compared to 1.6 million out of 217 million.......thats a much higher percent of those people being on welfare.

Yep, there is always a few people with 3 YES 3!!!!! carts full of crap at the Giant Eagle by home. All free!!!!!....glad i could pay for both mine and their groceries. To teh same point, funny how the people who '' cant afford to eat'' are definitely some of the plumpest.

Lol I seen that also, this couple had a Damm gallon of milk ...swiped there card , and no Bueno ... Felt bad for them I was going to offer that I'd pay for it but they just walked off.

Sure makes Canada look good. National debt, unemployment slowly dropping. Immigration laws being toughened up. Welfare regulations being tightened up. I have only the US gov't to thank for that. We seen what a miserable mess you guys are in and starting fixing our mess. Quick.

If only the people here used the food stamps and EBT cards to pay for groceries....most of them spend it on beer and cig's. My brother-in-law works at a QuikTrip in an area that has a pretty high number of people on welfare and/or food stamps and he was telling me the other day this lady came in and bought 2 packs of cigs, 2 40's of King Cobra and 2 12 packs of Bud Light.....all with here EBT card....and was sitting there telling her kids to put down the candy because they didnt have the money for it!!!!!

This all makes me sick! I deleted a bunch of people from my Facebook that posted anything in regards to obamas race and him winning. I.e. black power, black man in charge, black wins again...That type of stuff. Just goes to show that, that's the reason they voted for him and probably didn't even take the time to watch the debates and couldn't give a description of what he stood for.

I tried to have a conversation about the election with a co-worker and I brought this topic up. I was called everything under the sun and then some about being a racist. He said there was no way anyone could vote like that. I told him I was sorry that he was so close minded and that he should pay attention to how the world really works.
