Liberal Woman FURIOUS Over 15 Hours of Community Service for Food Stamps!

[Reagan]

She's been on food stamps ($2,000 per month) for 7 years.  She'll be required to at least do 15 hours of community service a week.  She says she doesn't have time for 15 hours of community service.  But, what's interesting, is that she had the time to do this video, get those tattoos and make 3 babies.  So, yes, she has the time!

They could eat high on the hog for $2,000 per month. Time to get off her back, which is where she seems to spend a lot of time.

[OlDawg]

Darwin screwed up on that one.

$2000 a month of food stamps is crazy. We're able to afford what we want and my family of four doesn't spend but around half of that a month on food at the grocery store. And that's with these goofy prices. 

[AggiesAreWe]

How can anyone get $2000 a month in food stamps???

Talk about overkill

If you think only liberals are on food stamps you haven’t been to West Virginia or New Hampshire.  Let alone Southeast Texas.  I have no objection to community service.  I do have a problem with tax breaks for the rich.  I would like to point out that there is no replacement for the Market place.  Market place was income based and it offered a free monthly premium if you made $16000.00 or less per year.  If you are suffering and don’t have insurance you now have to wait until open enrollment.  In the meantime you have to suffer until then.  No more PPO only HMO.

   The Hospitals have turned into catch and release.  They have not even waited for the effective date of policy change they know it’s here.  As a reminder to the elderly on this form and that is the majority of us. Your grandkids and great grands will be living in some shameful and hard times to come.  When the Democrats or Independents retain the White house with all the freedom and free will that comes with being a President  I am curious to see if MAGA keeps that same energy.

Just put them all on corners and give them “will work for food” signs. 

[5GallonBucket]

That’s a new concept “work for food”🙄

only posting this  because I just came across it after seeing this topic and thought it was somewhat fitting

Insurance FDA pharma hospitals….just a big” screw the people “   Insurance nothing but legal fraud.

here s a sample  mri on shoulder at BBJ with insurance….ins paid 1200$ i got sent a bill for another 1300$ so 2500$ for the mri.  I called anonymously after the fact “ how much for an mri cash pay…$500. 😡😡🤦

But really it’s more than the 1300 because I had to pay my monthly premium as well.

Yes. A specific group. Not a specific universal message to the Thessalonian church ch members. Jesus’ parable is a universal universal message. That part was in the AI quote you used.

so it comes down to discernment

I know this Jesus wasn’t lazy.

We re designed and created to work and fostering idleness doesn’t fit the description of what we were created for. It’s very evident.

encourage personal responsibility and discourage idleness
