For real, how are food stamps being paid in the national budget? :mindblown: But I agree that food prices are far too high as it is.

When I was around 19 I got fired and was embarassed to get unemployment. Then my mom explained to me that its my own money that was taken out of my check each month... which I really should of known but was not paying attn back then.

Feel free to take any government money whatsoever with total impunity.
As a black person, the government owed you money from before you were born and still has not made any attempt to pay its debts.

Anything you can extract from them is already yours by right and was extracted and extorted from your ancestors through violence.

Illegal immigrants that don't pay taxes have the same mentality. :sas2:

I want black folk to get reparations, just not through something g small minded like food stamps that depreciates over time. I rather have land, free businesses, and free education than just food stamps. :martin:

that just means people get a smaller amount and there is more restrictions. Im still seeing more people with them. Or maybe people are just more vocal about having them.

What you would rather have has no bearing on what is available.

As for education... its already free.
(school =/= education)

If it doesn't exist, then create one. That shyt ain't ambitious at all with being content with food stamps that can't create wealth. That's just me, but getting back at the ones that profited from slavery takes more than just food stamps.

I'm having a difficult time talking to you because you are extrapolating points I never made and inferring instead of simply taking in what I actually wrote.

I make no case for contentment, only entitlement.

I'm more concerned that a higher % of people are on it. What would happen when (not if) the government suddenly cut off Food stamps on people that were content on receiving it? :lupe:

45 million people! :damn:

That's like 14% of the population.

Me and my girl are about to get one while i go to school. It's hard having a kid and doing all that shyt. They weren't lying. But I'm not goin to depend on it. Frankly I hope I'm off it before I'm done with school but if not oh well. I pay taxes too but there are entirely way to many mfers on it.

White people are ashamed to use it at whole foods when i used to work there in college.

They would literally cuff it with their whole hand while sliding it. Sometimes i ran it as "credit" so when it didn't recognize it I would say "oh it's EBT". and make them slide it again.

I'm ashamed of it but I only did it to the ones that were uppity or rude.
I don't try and judge people some circumstances leave people in situations that are difficult. But the uppity and rude ones
