self serving psyco rant
Published Jul. 5, 2009Views: 1121
So I go to my local Foodlion to do a little shopping, when I say little, I have $50.00 left in my food budget and need to buy enough groceries to last till my next payday which comes on the 15th of this month, Not really an issue as we have become accustomed to it.
Anyway here is where it starts.
I got my stuff and standing in line with my handbasket with what I believe is about $48.00, 11 items, in front of me is a guy that has a screaming child a rolling buggy overflowing with goods, I'm thinking theres got to be over $300.00 in that buggy, so anyway, total comes to $347 and change and the dude pays with foodstamps, $347.00 in food stamps, I'm thinkin thats alot of foodstamps, my food budget is about $200 a month for me and my kid, anyway what happend next is what set me off,
The dude plunks down $80 cash for 2 cases of beer and a carton of cigarettes
Now I dont mind when a person needs a helping hand, but this made me furious, I dont know how this all works but I figured the 350 in foodstamps was for the whole month ?? but I figure the beer and ciggs wont last a week,
SO IF THIS GUY HAS GOT $80.00 A WEEK TO SPEND ON FREEKIN BEER AND CIGARETTES MAYBE HE SHOULD QUIT THAT $#!T AND FEED HIS FAMILY WITH HIS OWN FRIKKIN MONEY !!!!!!!!!!!!
THE MONEY ONE GETS AS A HELPING HAND SHOULD NOT ALLOW FOR FRIVOLOUS SPENDING OF MONEY THAT COULD OTHERWISE BE USED FOR SELF SUPPORT, I AM SO PISSED THAT THIS IS ALLOWED!!!!!!!!!!
PINS AND NEEDLES NEEDLES AND PINS A HAPPY MAN IS A MAN THAT GRINS :) :)
I FEEL MUCH BETTER NOW ... THANKS FOR LISTENING !!
