Obama is using the American people as a pawn in his game to get what he wants.
He is having EBT shut down immediately in November, which poses the threat of riots, amongst other things.
If this doesn’t raise alarm with you about this man’s true feelings about the American people, nothing will!
It seems Obama is trying to be hated!

i dont understand how he can do that i mean what does he want to do starve america or what this is just stupid…we need a new president asap…or to whom ever is taking them…they need to reilaz that how most ppl eat
WTH. You people are always bitching about big government and moochers taking your money. Now you would complain about the end of food stamps. What do you want?
All and all what is truly sad is that the food stamps at one time was a supplement to assist with the children having balanced meals…I have stood in many lines with someone in front of me buying LOBSTER…STEAKS…BIRTHDAY CAKES…JUNK FOODS…ECT…When I was young and my parents divorced my mother had to go to work…with four Children’s mouths to feed…what happened to the FOOD STAMPS that you received that were specific needs of the child…like carnation milk…a block of cheese…cereal…bread…peanut butter…beans…etc…the food stamps were not for luxury foods to meet the parents taste buds…the food stamps were an assistance for the children’s criteria!!!
This has become The American Dream!!!!!!!!
I am a nurse.MY car flipped (5 times) and I have had 40 orthopedic surgeries .What do you want me to do for myself. I had to give up a nursing career because I wasn’t getting to assist a patient that I couldn’t get help. Due to the wreck. NOT MY FAULT.I have paid in my taxes. What am I to do when I lose my food stamps!!!! What if I had known at this point I was on my way to help you? I would still go to my job. Why want you do yours for ONCE!!! . Man what a HARD problem it is to be a Christian AND NOT BLOW INSIDE BY MYSELF. THE pure double shifts you do and what you do in your position to us is sickening.Sleep well sir I know you always do. You have the best of everything and we don’t even get your crumbs. Some of us deserve what we have paid for with our studies and when our college funds are blown now. We can’t work and depend on our government to support us and what we should have to do for ourselves. As in no longer having a career and being 49 years old and already been on disability for 15 years. Because of open head trauma. PLEASE LET’S ALL IMPEACH THIS FRUIT!!!!!!!
why everyone talking about im tired of paying taxes for welfare u do realize that every person on fs does not just sit home all day…some people do work so who are they paying those welfare taxes for??? ik someone in your family im sure so stop trying to act like its all good in your world because if they do stop fs the same taxes they taking now they still gon be taking so get over it

I’ve read through quite a few of the comments posted on this article, and the stupidity and heartlessness of the majority of the people posting here is generally the problem with the population of this country.
If you look at the food stamp issue from a different viewpoint it becomes a much more complex problem than anyone seems to think it is.
First, everyone seems to want to say that they shouldn’t have to pay for the kids these irresponsible people keep having. Well imagine being one of those kids. You’re probably living in a very modest home, or in government housing (most likely surrounded by high crime rates), you don’t have new toys or clothes or other new things that some of the kids you know do. But at least you’re not going to bed hungry every night; because you’ve got food stamps.
Second, drug testing sounds like a great idea in theory. Until you go back to those kids. They’re likely to have no food, no homes and basically nothing because their parent(s) can’t give up their drugs of choice.
And yeah, I know you’re gonna say “Well take those kids away from their parents and then there won’t be a problem!” Ok, I’ll give ya that one. Until you stop to think about where all these kids are gonna go. The foster system is already screwed as it is, throw another 20 million kids into it, and they probably would’ve had a better chance with their parent(s).
And you can keep your rants about sterilization and any other method you’re thinking to stop these people from making more children. Believe me I’ve met a few in my life I wish could be sterilized, but that’s never gonna happen. It’s a direct attack on basic human rights and well we know how everyone feels about their rights as Americans.
I understand that there are people that abuse the system, and I wish there was a way to avoid that, however there are always gonna be those people in the world, and it doesn’t feel right to punish all of the people who genuinely need the help for the faults of the bad ones.
And I’ve gotta say my fiance and I work very hard to keep a roof over our heads, and food in the kitchen and provide a good life for our little boy. But not every child is so lucky, its not the fault of the children that were born to parents who can’t let go of drugs, or are disabled, or can’t find work. So, just try to keep that in mind the next time you’re screaming for a change in public assistance.
And lastly, if you hate your government so much, pay attention the next time you go out and vote. Don’t just elect whoever looks the best, or pick someone because they’re running for your party. Be responsible, do a little research and decided for yourself who seems like they’ll help take this country in the direction you’d like to see it go.
Until you have known what it’s like to suddenly need help don’t go bashing other people for needing assistance. Things happen in life you cannot control, no matter how well off you are. Like ones husband getting laid off from a well paid job, unemployment doesn’t provide a growing family who was once well off with enough money to pay bills & a house payment plus food. And it is really hard to find work in some areas after something so unfortunate happening. My sisters husband made good money & that is what happened to them. They were well off decided to start a family, shortly after my sister gave birth he got laid off. They suddenly didn’t have enough money to afford just having a child. They couldn’t pay for the house they lived in anymore, bills got behind, he couldn’t find another job. Things like this happen. For anyone being hateful telling people not to have children, telling them it’s as easy as getting a job, & working for it. Until something like this happens to you don’t go judging people in need. Because you do not know what that hardship is like until you have lived it. Be thankful you are so lucky.
