Hahahaha. That is funny because cat boots are mostly foreign made. Some people claim to support American workers yet never buy stuff made in America.

I'm a flaming liberal and own Thorogoods (USA UNION MADE)
And Chippewas b/c they are made in USA

Awesome. Carry on!
I also love those Buick Envision drivers who bought American. LOL

LOL- I wonder how they are?

Which is why most boots and jackets I buy are Carhartt, made in America and last forever ( also their HQ is in my home state, extra incentive there)

Good for you for helping working Americans prosper.

Yeah, lots of us do.

You learn something new everyday on this site.

On this thread, or another?

So it's been rectified, unless I've missed something?

The main reason older folks are conservative are taxes. Plain and simple. Nothing to do with getting smarter with age.

I was just thinking about that before, has it been happening much lately? laonsite got it by ton.
The best was when they were crying censorship when Alex Jones was bumped from YouTube, and comments gpt low rated on those meme threads.

is obviously*

Welfare is as broke as it's users.

The tell is that they use food stamps lol

:)

I have to disagree with you on this. Some people actually need the assistance for whatever reason. For example, a single mother may need help. Maybe somebody lost their job. The point is to not condemn soneone just because they are using a food stamp card. You never know what someone is dealing with. Their political feelings don't matter.

Well, that's all and good. That's how its supposed to work. In northwest Ohio my neighbor has food stamps she sells for crack. My neighbor upstairs is a felon who along with his crackhead pregnant girlfriend do meth, and they pissed away $1900 dollars given to them for the apartment by "kind hearted" charities who thought 23 year kids where ready for adulthood. I trip over help wanted signs everyday there are so many jobs but leveling up on ps4 or xbox is more important.

The abuse is the problem, not those who really need it and use it properly. But yeah, I've seen that too.

Are you seriously trying to reason with these people? You new here?

No to bother.

and they have $1500 chrome rims on their car.

You saw them also I see. They got in an Escalade.

yup

Now that leftists are good and triggered...
All state welfare payments (food stamps, welfare checks, WIC, etc.) can be sent to the same card. The funds for food "Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program" aka food stamps can't be legally spent on alcohol, cigarettes, or other non-food items. So both the conservatives and liberal should just settle down!

When I lived in Detroit they were withdrawing the cash assistance benefits from the casino ATMs. I am so glad we choose to help people who consistently make bad life choices.

DANG. That sucks that the ATMs would take their welfare cards. It must have been like on a state funded debit card or something?

I remember my first year in state college, we got our student loan and Hope Scholarship money on one of those type debit cards. Some people were taking their cards and buying TVs and making car payments. Others were withdrawing money and getting drunk or high. Ignorant.

I'm in Georgia and our lowlifes who abuse the welfare system have to be a little more creative. The SNAP cards are not like other cards that can be used in ATMs. You buy non-food items from stores: shoes, clothes, electronics. If you go to one of the shady convenience stores they will let you buy beer and cigarettes there with funds meant for food. If they want to buy liquor or drugs they have to find someone who will give them "two for one" meaning they will give one dollar for every two dollars worth of food you buy for them. There are other hustles with the SNAP card, but that is the most widely used.

It sucks that people abuse the system. I personally think if they are caught doing it they should be banned from cash assistance, but that could hurt their children. The state could still ban them but would have to come up with another means of helping the children. However, people would still figure a way to scam the system.

Example: when I was younger we had the paper food stamp coupons. The the way lowlifes in my family hustled was to give me, a little child, a $10 or $20 coupon to go in the story and by a 10 cent piece of gum and bring them back the change so they could buy cigarettes, beer, or drugs. The state came up with the SNAP card now people hustle like I mentioned before. It will never stop.
