I went to the grocery store today. I got turned around and walked down an isle I have never been down before, and I was appalled at what I seen! All in one isle I saw a bunch of junk food! Candies and snack cakes and cookies... THEN I went to go to the next isle and its full of nothing but sodas, chips and dip!!!! WTH? Why is this legal?! How?! I can't believe that people are actually allowed to buy this crap, and they actually feed it to their kids?! I am going to call my local congressmen and make a complaint. No one should be allowed to buy these things! I don't care who's money they are using, its just not right!
* I know, sounds ridiculous doesn't it?... Now think about how you -PA posters- sound every time you make just as big of an idiotic post. It might be the gov money people are spending, but its going to be spent either way. Regardless if they spend it on fruits and veggies, or on chips and snack cakes. If they run out and all they have is crap, its on them. Not you not I. So why not mind your own business? If its that big of a deal, why not push to have all the processed crap out there illegal all together? No one should be buying it then, based on your inane rants. I on the other hand couldn't care less what others buy with their own money or otherwise.*
Unemployment has a time period for you to get yourself back on your feet. Why shouldn't all PA?

right, because everyone picks themselves up and finds a great paying job that will get them off food stamps within a year. *eyeroll*.

I don't give a shit what they spend it on. Your right.....the money is given to them regardless. My problem is the amount people are given in the first place and the lack of "rules". As for how they eat? Who cares.
Now you wanna talk about stricter time limits (1 year MAX), no increase if you have more kids, and the amounts cut at least in half....i am all in!!
It's only clever if the comparison makes sense lmao
Quoting sucker4myloves:It is clever, you don't actually have to agree with it to see what she did there.

It's not clever, she's comparing apples to dog food.
Quoting sucker4myloves:I see what you did there, you clever little wench
Do you know what a communist is? A communist would only allow you to only buy groceries in a government grocery store with government money. If I were a communist I would NOT have said that you are free to spend YOUR money as you please.
Why is it my business?
1. I'm paying taxes to feed these people
2. Eating like crap leads to many health issues, which will lead to spending more money in the healthcare system. Those on PA are likely to have NO insurance or government insurance, again costing me money.
1.. a lot of people on that system today, have at one time put into that system. And quite a few have put in more than their fair share. For someone like you to tell them what they can and can not eat is absurd. Especially disabled vets who rely on that system. If they want a treat, they should be able to get it.
2.. I still don't see what makes it your business on what they decide to spend it on.. as long as they are spending it on edible food. Again, NOT your concern, not your business. The last I checked this was a free country, and we have free will. If you disagree, you are no better than a communist.. there are special countries with you in mind. If it makes you so unhappy, why not try one of those places. Im sure you can agree with a lot of their ideas.
Quoting Anonymous:Because if you earn your money, you spend it as you please. If your depending on the government to feed your family, you should be feeding them wholesome foods. Junk food is not a necessity, it's an extra. Those on PA do not have the extra money.
The cakes, I eats them, they are delicious.
