What would happen if all those on welfare could not purchase food with their EBT cards? With 4.5% of the U.S. population, which is roughly 46.5 million Americans on welfare, the numbers who would go hungry and thus revolt out of outrage would be significant.
This however is not just a speculative possibility, but rather an on going issue with food stamp recipients not getting their benefit nine days into the month. Apparently there is a glitch in the EBT (electronic benefit transfer) system.
On Downdetector.com, many are commenting on the pending riots that very well may occur because those dependent on the EBT for food and benefits will respond much like the rioters in Ferguson.
On man stated, “The board is set for unbelievable rioting, looting and worse – and all that’s needed is a little spark; what better spark than one day, no one’s EBT cards work.”
Read how the Obama administration has been intentional in making people dependent upon the government and building up the SNAP program, on the next page.
Just stating the facts folks. And how is it racist to point out racism.
I’m diusgusted by your view of fellow humans, humans that have been played by the system. Thank God, that you seem to be a resourceful middle class American.
The main problem here isn’t the poor, it isn’t the welfare program. Thee main problem and only problem, is the rigged financial system that work as a welfare system for the ultra mega rich. If the multinationals and the rich had paid their fair share of taxes and if the US Governmant had closed all tax loopholes and closed the opportunity for rich people and corporation to hide money in tax heavens, then there would be no poor people in the US. All of you could have more than enough money to live in luxury.
And another thing: To eradicate ppoverty on worldwide basis cost s $30 billion a year – that is less than 1% of what the US alone spend on their military.
If you want to point fingers, make sure you point at the right people, not the people that have been singled out for a life in poverty.
Yes they should get a job, Welfare was never meant to be a lifetime cure all, only temporary.

People actually WORKED for a living….????
