re: #134 A Mom Anon

Shorter story: Anyone who bitches about food stamps is a selfish twit with no concept of how much of a teeny, teeeeeny tiny portion of the national budget is taken up by food stamps and public assistance in general. It’s something like 4 million people totaling around 1 percent of the total budget. And that money actually creates economic activity on the local level. Gah. I hate Teh Stoopid. Also too, to “collect a welfare check” someone has to be working, and can only collect that money for a total of less than 5 yrs of their ENTIRE adult life. Don’t work? No check. Not from welfare at least.

Yep. They’re still stuck in the 80’s Welfare Queens mindset.
