And I bet they have their flat screens and IPhones still!
I don't know anyone who still has CRT TV but poor people with $800 lphones piss me off.
I should head down to Montana and cash in on these food stamps if they are handing them out like flyers for hookers in Vegas.

C'mon down Petros... come and get yourself one. It can be used in Canada so you just need to pick it up. If you do not qualify that is OK... just lie. You are encouraged to lie and they do not check so often.

I encourage ALL Canadians to come down and get yourselves EBT cards if you have the time.

Yes they are. They old stamp books were demeaning and humiliating so they say.

Honestly, any Canadians who have the time and can do a little research on "how to" should take full advantage of the US Food Stamp Program.

Hit em' all up!

Alcohol may be a little difficult BUT your alcohol wants will be subsidized by getting your food (including restaurants) paid for know what I mean? If you make it to Massachusetts maybe the pretty lady would like a spa treatment on us good tax payers of Massachusetts.

As our governor said... "Taking salon treatments off the benefits is simply mean spirited. What if a woman is getting her nails done for a job interview?"

So there it is!

$950 NET qualififies someone for SNAP. $950 or $12 an hour and people still have troubles?

Good research man! So now you know the baseline... go lower.

Jesus. That's loose.


When my junkie sister in-law applies for food vouchers they are only good for food and hygiene only. No exceptions.

She gets $1600 a month because being a junkie is a disability. They pay us $780 for her rent and 1/3 of our utilities and she gets $660 to buy food clothes and gas/insurance and her morphine pills from the gangbangers.

Are you serious? I had no idea welfare gave out so much cash to single people with disabilities. When my daughter was 4 and I became a single parent suddenly I had to turn to welfare and I never rec'd that much even accounting for inflation. Maybe if I'd stayed on it...I could have developed a disability...

She has really bad PTSD but self medicates. It's not just being a junkie that qualified her for SAID.

It's different than welfare. You have to be really screwed to qualify for SAID and it's not cheap to live here. It pays enough for the disabled to live on their own instead in group or shared.

Welfare disability was only paying her around $775 plus utilities paid direct which is still $100 over single employable after she split with her last husband and moved in with us again.

There is no excuse to be on welfare if you live in SK so there aren't many on it and the money that went to welfare was diverted to SAID without increasing the budget a penny.

Thanks Petros, for the clarification.

What is this statistic supposed to mean?

The minimum wage in the US is far below a living wage, so a lot of people who work full time still qualify for(and need) food stamps. Hell, some of these low wage employers are helping their employees sign up for food stamps and other social assistance programs.

So, are you implying that a lot of people in the US are lazy, or that a lot of large corporations are using these programs as corporate welfare to avoid paying their employees living wages?

I'm going to see if the name is available.

For $50, a person could have oodles of fun with that name.

What do you think about private companies relying on the government to subsidize their employees low salaries? It doesn't sound ideal to me.
