exactly
how dare you not pamper our sorry asses!
Can't complain when you have nothing
how dare you not reward us for not being able to self sustain!
EBT is one of the things that I would overhaul if I were ever elected
Ill vote for you mike
you know you have my vote
EBT? You get water, juice, or milk. No sodas lol
the only things that should be allowed with EBT are things necessary to survival. hell, juice probably shouldnt even be considered acceptable sincce most kinds of juice are just sugar drinks
Ya they did change that
no TV dinners, no frozen meals.
Yeah, I'm putting juice in there though because kids. No frozen meals, BUT you can get the stuff to make it yourself
Vegetables, fruits, basic meats, water. That's it.
i see EBT people buy a bunch of fancy expensive tasty frozen dinners and TV dinners. i hate that shit.
But my sister says they clear out the steak and seafood shelf's every month
Like you can't get frozen french fries...but you can buy potatoes.
Like 2k in ebt
the people i see are too lazy for that, but again, i didnt work at a grocery store.
so people probably do that shit
its disgusting.
But I wouldn't want it to be fun, or enjoyable, or easy. If it's any of those things, it removes motivation to get off of EBT and start making money for yourself.
ive made french fries at home before, they taste really good compared to buying frozen ones, and even buying french fries from fast food places.
Steak fries are easy as hell to make
I'm not making crinkle cut but I'll make my own fries lol
i just slice a potato into thin circles (not quite chips, enough potato to be considered fries) then i fry them in a pan with butter, salt, and pepper.
so good.
super lazy and easy
I had to be on welfare for a min and was embarrassed about it but me and my wife still uses coupons and bargain shoped
i think people should be embarrassed to be on it. i dont like that good people feel that way, but thats how it should be.
Anyone watching the press briefing?
I've been on EBT before. It was after my first marriage ended and I basically had a breakdown. I'm not proud of it, but it happened, and I got off of it.
I don't usually watch the briefings, I just get the highlights afterwards
I'm epileptic. I worked my entire life, until my condition got bad enough I could no longer work. I can never drive again. Now I'm on Disability, and hating it.
That sucks
When I worked, I made a good amount. On Disability, I get about $500 a month. And I'm on EBT.
Like legitimately, that sucks. My nephew has epilepsy, it was really bad for a while and he wasn't allowed to drive or anything. This was also before the internet was everywhere so it was extra shit for him
Imajica you said you live on the Rez?
Yep, @WarWiz . But I'm not a native.
@DishonoredRonin. That’s not too terrible, as long as you have retirment and savings
Oh I'm native and have benefits but don't use them
