Every couple of weeks, the admin floats a trial balloon to see if his base will accept it if we don't deport hotel workers or ag workers, or if they will accept a huge increase in H1Bs instead of eliminating them. They are slow rolling deportations until they can pull off the bait and switch to betray us in favor of his (((owners))).
My favorite was old "Bernie" Sanders saying in an interview "Yes, we're still getting paid during the shutdown, but I need money, unlike all the clerks and entry level government employees, or the SNAP recipients."
the income threshold in CA is 1800 or less, and in CA, full time is non existent, so most workers qualify for snap, so it is likely there are coworkers that are crying about food stamps
Yeah, most people working actual jobs are on benefits, it's pretty much just the parasite class that is given enough money to sustain themselves comfortably(while they complain about the prices when they go out to eat)
Here in GA, I've only ever known two people on food stamps in my life, and both were unintentionally single mothers, one legitimately also on disability. That was back while I was in middle and high school, in the 90s. I've never known anyone I've worked with on them, ever.
I grew up in appalachia (as ive pointed out a gazillion times). Like most of the poor people from that area I grew up on food stamps.
Despite what people think they didnt just give them to my dad for free he had to get a job. He did find something that was good for him but it only paid minimum wage which was something like 5$ at that time in ohio. It was not near enough to pay the bills/taxes, buy clothes/shoes, even food when it was a fraction of the price it is now. Everything I wore was thrift store/second hand.
It was an embarrassing enough experience THEN, that I would rather starve as a adult than ask for food stamps. If I had kids, yes I guess I would do what I had to do to make sure they were fed, but adult individuals get a tiny tiny fraction of what actual familys get.
What I find truly embarrassing, that our government cant protect the common person enough to protect their rights. Like right to clean water, food or housing, things that were and should be human rights, but people dont seem to care anymore. Everyone is suffering from compassion fatigue. Only hurting themselves in the end, as the rich want us divided.
I find it evil that tax money is being used to be swindled by the rich while the poor and sick are forgotten. No one seems to care that trillions of dollars are spent on the spy apparatus or weapons of war. Zero FUCKS GIVEN. Ohio funneling public money to private religious institutions and away from public schools infuriates me beyond my soul.
One time when visiting dayton, someone stole my dads workboots and food stamps from his truck. One of us forgot to lock the doors, this was 30 years ago lmao.
Poor people are big business! Thousands of bureaucrats in every city depend on an ever-growing number of poor folks for their fat government jobs!
Years back? My Province saw "child poverty" fall to an all-time low. Rather than be happy? Those in charge simply jacked up the level that defined poverty in their system. A month later they were screaming for more funding since "child poverty" had shot uP! 😣
Ditto for sick people & homeless people: big bucks to be made in keeping them sick & homeless.

I've been told that if I want to be able to afford to live that I should just get a better job or start my own business as though it's actually that easy to succeed that you can just go out and do it.
Leftists demand pork.
Conservatives demand pork.
Working and middle class tax payers have no representation in our government.
Dems and Republicans both fight to give Israel as much pork as possible
No shit. We're under occupation.
They don't care. Because orange man bad. And orange man destroyed the east wing.
Could you elaborate on the not serious about deportations thing?

Put them all in the same building then send some guy called Samson in.
I eeeerrr BORROWED (Lie - 0% success) all the nukes from israel. That'll work, right?
This is why they took away line item veto. They wanted this drama, and now they have it.

I'll take things that aren't happening for $1600, Alex's ghost.
I'm already seeing more womens' hair at the grocery stores, though, if you catch my drift.

The Fed can just print another few million worthless fiatbux. It's all fake anyway.
Doesn't matter, because most of these retards are jobless and their phones are blowing up with all the blame being put on Trump
