Media is saying no welfare payments Nov 1 if the shutdown continues. Recently a city subsidized grocery store in Kansas City was closed because of theft. It opened to give people in low income neighborhoods easy access to food. In spite of being subsidized theft was just to high. People filling carts and just leaving. Might be bigger than the open border antifa riots.

Had a woman living close to me that did not pay her rent during the covid scam. Biden made it impossible to evict renters for nonpayment for quite a few months. Her live in boyfriend kept working the same job all through the propaganda. When the rent finally had to be paid she got mad. Sheriffs dept and court made them leave. So before leaving they did thousands of dollars of damage to the house. She got welfare and child support. Seen the boyfriend siphon gas from his company owned truck for his pick up. This in rural KS.

What are the deadbeats in the cities going to do?

Welfare breeds entitlement and dependency and the seeds we have sown for too many years are about to bear fruit.
It doesn't take a genius to look around and see what the long term effects of welfare does to the general population. On paper and in micro situations it looks like a good idea but the longer term effects are pretty obvious if you look around unbiasly. If welfare in general helped we as a country wouldn't be getting more dependent on it. Bureaucracy loves welfare because it makes the population more dependent, gives the government more power, enlarges government and opens the door for more corruption and fraud.

The black community has never recovered from Lyndon Johnson creating the welfare systems in 1965 . That has become their culture and encouraged one parent families and dependence on the government.

Well, imo, cutting the strings is long overdue and something that has to be done. Might get ugly but in the long run it'll be better for all of us if the powers that be have the backbone to see it through.

My guess is Schumer and crew will try to use it to skeer the repuplicans to cave on the shutdown. But ultimately it too will fail if the republicans hold their ground.

They can eat knuckles, copper, and lead if they want to try violence.

If you don’t pay what is “owed” then just take it will be the mentality heck doing the same already and it’s justified so nothing will be done about it. Violation of the law is not a problem anymore politicians pick and choose what laws the will follow now the rule of law is used as a tool now not a standard.

One thing to remember.

Welfare is a way for politicians to buy votes. All politicians will say they will increase your X entitlement if you will vote for them. This is also THEFT!!!

If the politicians increase how much money a person gets from snap, wic, disability, SS, name it, that means they take more money from my pocket in the form of increased taxes for their ability to buy votes. It may sound apathetic, but no one deserves more of my money.

So when you hear more money for X entitlement from X politician, that means higher taxes which means a lower paycheck for those who actually work and own property.

Time to flush the toilet

Also applies to corporate welfare.

That is why I did not designate D or R.

I have a baited hook in the water. Just waiting on a bite.

Cities have been voting for that for years, I got nothing for them.

I would guess most people on welfare are too lazy to loot too.

Keith

All the brothers in the hood with a job about to have their phones blown up with "how u ben?, Wana hang out?"

And fat. And full.

When they get hawngry they will want to know what the government is gonna do for them.

Enter X politician to save the day by taking more money away from me and giving it to them. But you better vote for X politician because Y politician doesn't want to give you anything. The Y politician wants you and granny to starve or eat dog food.

GOD FORBID you tell them they have to get a job. Oh the vapors!!!

Let them eat cake!!!

Blah, blah, blah!!!

None of the piglets on the government teet want to hear about job or educational opportunities. They only want "free" money and "free" food and services.

And X politician has created this piglet so they will have a constant lazy dependent pathetic fat voting constituency. May sound harsh but it ain't a lie.

And then these piglets will sell their snap for money on the half or less so they can buy cigs and beer and malt liquor. No skin off their back. It's all free money anyways.

All in the vain of a vote. Just so X politician can keep their job and rob the public of even more money while they become multi millionaires doing inside trading and giving out free cake. To a politician, it is also ALL free money.

No matter what the issue or problem is, IT IS ALWAYS ABOUT THE MONEY!!

I offer my perpetual pot recipe and a good video on breaking down road kill deer.

onions , carrots , potatoes , meat , salt , pepper and the seasonings you like . place in pot or crock pot water to cover about 2/3 of the ingredients.
if using crock pot 6 hours high , let stay on keep warm

if pot simmer for about 4 hours then return to boil for 20 minutes before each meal and before going to bed and when you wake up. keep covered on back of stove. when it runs low add ingredients and simmer 4 hours.

gutless method the road kill you give up the organs and the tenderloins but the crash breaks the gut very often.

Kwik Trip is 39 cents a pound on potatoes and onions , 3.99 a pound on ground beef , chicken , pork , venison , probably beaver all work as well.

even if your buying 3.99 a pound beef a pot to feed 4 people 2 meals a day your looking at about 8 dollars 12 if you like it meaty , hard to beat 2-3 dollars a person a day but you can with cheaper meat or free roadside meat

342 million people in the USA and 43 million of them getting SNAP benefits. Makes me furious. Bring back soup kitchens if folks need food.

Lol!!!!!
Reminds me of the number of “HEY GIRRRL!” texts I get from ppl I haven’t seen in 8 years when they want advice or help…

Snap statistics

Interesting

Freedom to chains - Paul Harvey.

I like it

The people receiving SNAP benefits mostly don't do more than heat and eat cooking. Pop is their most common purchase. Here's the top 20 purchases we pay for them to make.

I don't have a serious problem with most of the social welfare programs. I DO have a problem with the abuse of the programs by people who are quite capable of contributing to society. Those who believe the world owes them something. Does the world owe me something because I had only one mom and one dad? Poor me.

There will always be those who, through no fault of their own, cannot work, function in society or live on their own. Been that way for as long as I can remember.

Interesting

Seems the high welfare states coincides,with sanctuary states, at least on the west side states

I don't think anyone would be surprised by this at all.



Keith

Then they’ll still complain about the wait time at the ER and be up and about using the restrooms and visiting the vending machine.
These gypsies are so bored with their lives that everything is an event.

I’m a little surprised by Wisconsin being at 12 percent and Minnesota only at 9.

Always a bright side, eh? ‘I didn’t do nuffin’ wong”…. “Jus’ tryin’ feed my eight kids”.. lol

Mad Mike come to Fayette county and let’s thin em out!!!

I want nothing to do with the EBT’s down there, lol…

I can’t wait until the first of the month to see all this transpire. Roads will be empty. Stay outta my way, deadbeats

I am looking forward to it also. Makes me feel like a POS to pay taxes for people who demand everything, but contribute nothing. Rather we just fight over it, already.

I just feel bad for the kids and babies who may be affected by it. Cause their parents suck

Some people suck, at life….

Yeah and rarely does the cycle end it usually only gets worse with the next generation.

Welfare or EBT needs to be a 3-6 month short term solution, not a lifestyle. During those months receiving benefits, you need to arrive by 9 am at an assigned government facility such as a court house. First thing, you need to give a clean urine sample. After that you will be provided with SOMETHING to do until 5 PM. Mow the lawn, sweep the floors,etc. Too fat and lazy for that? You can answer phones or do SOMETHING productive for the taxpayers that are providing your welfare. If you fail to meet any of this criteria, you benefits end. Welcome to the real world and it is almost like a job.

So, some people suck at life?

Based on the links provided, it appears that 10-15% of the population are A #1 deadbeats that count on everyone else to hold their hand and wipe their chin through life. Anyone can have a string of bad luck and a 3-6 month helping hand should get you back on your feet. Anything more is just a parasite.

I'm familiar with Fayette County. It's a tough place.

FYI some people cycle out of welfare and some cycle in and some are always in. Your deadbeats probably are in the 30 percent range

Government welfare isn't charity. How about leave it up to the individual to decide who gets his/her charity.
Remolded grocery stores for a living for several years, food stamp folks come in all colors.

Are they going to riot and loot?

Americans want to help the helpless and those who are trying to help themselves

What kills me is looking at my total taxes paid each year. Payroll, property, sales, and user taxes and fees. It really is important to become educated on our tax codes.

When i see im paying in more each year than I made in a year in my early 20s and how I was living better back then its mind blowing.

Out here in the country they'll likely just steal everything that ain't tied down.

I hate to say it, but, Elsmasho is speaking about what we've seen generationally.

check your pms old man.

You should be resting, sir. Our brains account for 20% of daily calorie intake, that's not including one that's stroke damaged.

Your friend,
A fellow stroke survivor.

Yep, some people just suck, at life.

I suspect a LOT of folks protesting the enforcement of illegal alien laws are getting welfare. How many employers would not fire someone for leaving a job to interfere with a deportation raid?

“What GAO Found
The 12 million wage-earning adults (ages 19 to 64) enrolled in Medicaid—a joint federal-state program that finances health care for low-income individuals—and the 9 million wage-earning adults in households receiving food assistance from the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) shared a range of common labor characteristics. For example, approximately 70 percent of adult wage earners in both programs worked full-time hours (i.e., 35 hours or more) on a weekly basis and about one-half of them worked full-time hours annually (see figure). “

Source: GAO

I can't think of any with the exception of those woke companies that encourage that type of behavior.

I can promise you that if you're on my crew and you leave to go interfere with a deportation party, you better take your tools with you. Because you won't have a job to come back to.

If you are on government assistance, your voting rights should be suspended until you are off government assistance unless you are a veteran.

And you should be required to take a drug test.
