Because he said he preferred a Rueben to a Cheese Steak. People are so 'single issue' minded... geeze.. Have a nice day = GFY. GFY = Go Fuck Yourself. If this offends you then have a nice day. |

(OP) User ID: 23438707 United States 11/17/2012 08:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Now it's 23.00 less. Update: Cuts to Ohio food assistance to be less than estimated What’s called the “standard utility allowance” — the amount deducted from a person’s income when the state determines his or her eligibility for the food stamp program — will decrease in 2013, which originally translated to about $50 less monthly per household in food assistance. State Job and Family Services officials tried to appeal the change to the Agriculture Department, which oversees the food stamp program, officially known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program — or SNAP — but the department had denied the request. However, on Thursday, the state’s Department of Job and Family Services asked the Agriculture Department to use a different calculation that takes into account the cost of electric heat and propane. The federal department approved the change Friday. As a result, households’ monthly benefit will decrease by $23 instead of $50.

(OP) User ID: 23438707 United States 11/17/2012 08:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Ohio is getting the eaters to move on down the road to greener grounds. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27968231 Illinois or Georgia my guess. Maybe that's the reason unemployment in Ohio suddenly dropped from 9 some percent down to 6 some. Seriously though, I look for many states to follow. If I were getting food aid, I'd be trying to put something aside now, regardless of where I lived. |
aggie User ID: 12983932 United States 12/29/2012 01:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Now I need it, as my income is only Soc Security reduced because of a very small $200 state pension also. So they cut my food assistance to $34.00 per month, after all my years of paying for others that need help, I barely get any. Can you believe $34.00. That is an insult. Why bother at all. |
12983932 User ID: 12983932 United States 12/29/2012 02:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Another thing that is wrong with food stamp and Medicaid for indigent is that they allow these people to have more and more children while they are on assistance, and increase their aid every time a new child or pregnancy occurs. How much sense does that make. I can see if someone has a work history and is laid off, unemployed, and has 3 kids, they should get the help while looking for work. But not someone who keeps having kids they can't afford or won't work to support them. Someone who is already on public assistance should get benefits for the first one, and no more. Let them do some family planning or unplanning. The cost Medicaid is staggering for all of these children, much more than food assistance. And it was just in the news Ohio had spent billions less on Medicaid than expected the last two years. Why are they cutting food stamps anyway and not making provisions for those who really need them and can't work any more. Vote Kasich out. |

Cut all the social security and food stamps and watch the streets fill with dying homeless people but you won't see one penny more in your paychecks. If you want your money back, take the jobs away from the corrupt officials. Shut down the 3 (and now 4) letter agencies, and most importantly the central bankers and the military-industrial empire war machine that sucks away the trillions. Quoting: Sysiphus 27573726 Only complete fucking retards blame anything on this economy on the crumbs that go to the poor. Only weak, pathetic idiots who are powerless blame the poor for their own failure. But then it's easier for you douchebags to blame the poor because it's easy for you to push them around but you would piss your panties in the face of the real crooks who steal your wealth. REALLY GOOD POST, thank you Sisyphus. |

Ya really can't fault the government for cutting back food stamps, wasting money like that on citizens when there's so many needy countries that haven't received Americas inexpensive blessing of freedom, peace and security yet, like these fortunate ones..

Quoting: Nika Why not start with the young and lazy who are perfectly capable of working a job or planting a garden? My heart goes out to the little old man and that sweet old lady who may go hungry. they dont want the elderly because they are a burdon on them my own mother and her roomy mate have serious ills and in the last three months alone racked up 20,000 dollars in ambulance rides to the hospital the truth is not a soul on ss has put in as much as they already received back the govt wants this to end and death is the only way "there is a generation that neither toils yet eats" the social security age is these folks 45% of america is on a free ride and they love it. 23% are unemployed or gave up. 30% are paying for the whole system and 2% are rich and laugh all the way to the bank. "one third of the fish die in the sea" means the ones paying are going under from the debt piled upon their heads. Where is all the money that congress took from our SS over the years? Don't cry about me getting SS now. $20,000 in Ambulance rides? Somebody is gauging the fuck out of people with their prices. How about $100 for a hospital ride? That ought to be more than enough. The prices that doctors and hospital prices are outrageous. We need to hang a few to get prices more in line with reality. You lazy fucks need to get back to work and stop crying about old folks taking your damn money. |
