Why don't the "49 million hungry Americans" go to food banks, get food stamps, or shop at Wal Mart?

My sister has been on foodstamps for 12 years, and she just used them to get a $50 birthday cake from Kroger...We can't afford to waste money like that because we actually have to work for it, AND we have bills to pay...All she pays for is her data plan on her Android (she traded in her Blackberry), 2 cartons of MARLBOROS (no cheap cigarettes for HER) every week, and gas for her Durango so she can go shopping every day. She gets way more foodstamps than she could ever need, especially since she eats out almost every day (she says she hates to cook)...My family never spends as much on groceries as she gets in foodstamps every month...It encourages people to waste money...and food...Her daughter ate dinner with us a couple months ago, loaded up her plate, and threw half of it in the garbage...My kids were shocked...My kids were taught not to waste food because it costs MONEY. Able-bodied people who refuse to work, shouldn't be fed, housed and medicated by other able-bodied people who work for a living.

This Site Might Help You. RE: Dear people on Food Stamps: Why do you shop at Wal-Mart? I recently found out how much EBT money people get.

And I noticed at Whole Foods (Fancy and Healthy Grocery store) that they accept EBT cards. So we budget out the money and my family spends less than the EBT allowance that other people qualify for. And we mostly have to shop at Wal-Mart.

What...

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
