Single Mom Of 9 Does A Food Stamps Haul Full Of Junk Food

I spend a small fortune at the grocery store and these people just get it all for free forever.

They all think “The Government is paying for it” They can’t comprehend that it is the working people that pays for it!

Milk ,meat, potatoes, rice, veggies and cheese should be 90% of the benefits

I have actually been poor with no handouts, and I can tell you what true food insecurity looks like. No way could I afford junk food. I learned how to stretch things like oats, beans, rice, and peanut butter. I learned how to make soups and sews in bulk that I could freeze, and that was the only time I ate meat. I learned to bake my own bread. I got most of my protein from eggs and yogurt. I ate lots of fruits and veggies because they’re cheap, despite the lie that people like to tell themselves that produce is expensive. I drank nothing but water and black coffee. I didn’t buy soda, chips, cookies, and snacky foods because I couldn’t afford them and learned quickly that they only made me hungrier. It was a treat if I had enough in my grocery budget to afford a tub of ice cream. I lost 30 lb. in two years. That’s what being poor and trying to get back on your feet actually looks like, in case anyone is wondering.

What’s fascinating to me is that … they film it. They put it on display. They showcase their sloth and gluttony and stupidity. They make the arguments against themselves.

I remember when folks tried their best to hide the fact that they were using food stamps.

"Nothing is so permanent as a temporary government program." Milton Friedman How absolutely correct he was ... 😒

It's about time they ban junk food with EBT benefits

Some people need food assistance, most are abusing the system…

I am a disabled senior that uses EBT and was shocked upon discovering soda, chips and candy can be purchased with ebt. I absolutely support using it to purchase healthy foods.
