I went grocery shopping last night and the 4 people in front of me all used food stamps or EBT cards. One lady had her cart full frozen food, lunch meat, soda, junk food and baby food.

Then it got me thinking - One of the reasons why restaurant prices are skyrocketing is because people aren't eating out as much and cooking their own meals.

I remember overhearing someone at my job saying that their friend or family member gets $300 a month in stamps plus another $95 for covid relief - $395 in food stamps every month. I don't even think I could eat $200 worth a groceries a month let alone double that.

No wonder why everyone is so fucking fat too.

WTF, wages at a decent level for the bottom they should be fine if both adults work even a shitty job should cover it unless they are buying cars, houses, and other shit they cannot afford then it's a shopping addiction that needs to be controlled. I haven't used stamps since I was out of work over a decade ago from surgery.
