Vicious Food Stamp Cut In Effect

The monthly allowance for an individual in NY in 2012 was $147.45. source That comes out to $36.86 per week, then take a portion of that off with the new cuts thanks to the GOTea. In case you haven't noticed food is insanely expensive. I was in the supermarket about an hour ago checking out butternut squash at around $1.30 per pound. Long story short, a person on food stamps might be able to buy 4 to 5 decent size butternut squash and in so doing use all of their weekly food stamp allowance. Think about that.

Starving children makes a GOtea's day. These children you see are the Devil's spawn produced by undeserving and racially inferior women. The Fuhrer said so, didn't he? This is how the Nazis threw children into the ovens and then said they were doing them a favor, while improving the species. The GOtea believes in a similar form of eugenics that forces people to bear kids and then whose policies kills them afterwards. It's all for their own good.

Sitting here thinking about this my course of action is writing my congress guy and the governor. What I get back is a form letter and a yeah we're working on it. I once saw a clip about a guy who would go downtown in some city and hand out sandwiches to anybody. Maybe it's time to do that. I go to conservatives for donations.
