Please give me a specific answer....
I'm going to make this quick, because you people bore me, and some of us here actually have photos to work on. If I have to expalin it to you, you are living under a rock and not paying attention.
Just 3 days ago (this is just one time, I've seen it too many to count), I went grocery shopping. I do all my shopping at Wal-Mart. To support them?? NO. Because I can only afford them. I do not like the meats at Wal-mart so, after buying mostly generic or Wal-mart brand stuff, I go to a local store that has excellent meat, albeit pricey. While in the check out, I observe the women in front of me. She has all top of the line, quality stuff, including T-bone steaks. Not to mention 6 bags of chips, and 5 2-litre bottles of pop. I wonder how your hero Bloomburg would react to that. Her bill is almost $300, about twice what I spent at Wal-Mart. I won't tell you how she pays for it, because even you can figure it out. When I leave the store, I see her again, loading her FREE goodies into her 2009 Equinox. I walk to my 1995 Lumina, and go to my
second job.
I see this kinda stuff daily, and I'm not even looking for it. A co-workers' neighbor receives food stamps, and works about 20 hours a week. Her live-in boyfriend works fulltime. He gets his mail from a post office box, so there is no record of him living there. They are also able to file taxes seperately. Because she lives "alone", and has a child, she gets back approx. $4,500 during tax time. How much of that $4,500 actually came out of her check? Here's a hint: It's next to nothing!! Oh, I forgot. Because she lives "alone", she also gets housing assistance and medical coverage. She pays zero for it, and has zero co-pays. Her insurance is better than mine, and I work 50-60 hours a week.
I have witnessed people using thier food stamps to buy other people things. Then, the other people give them cash, and they use it for cigarettes. I have seen it done with a six-pack as well.
In last 20 years since I've been paying attention, I can't even guess as to the number of times I've seen shit like this occur.
If you haven't seen it, you're either turning a blind eye, or a complete fool.
