[QUOTE="Williamsv, post: 1186560, member: 22323"] I am not in favor of people on Food Stamps being able to go to bakeries and buy all kinds of sweets. I see their grocery carts filled with pizzas, sodas, meals to heat in microwave, and all kinds of junk food. They never have fresh vegetables like turnips and rutabagas like I buy to cook. A church in our town gives out boxes of groceries every month. I have seen the nice fruits and vegetables that they get. Some took their fresh blueberries and threw them out on the road before they even got home with them. I believe in helping feed hungry children, but welfare mothers today do not cook for their children. They get a free breakfast and lunch at school. Most would have a dollar a day for snacks. I saw that for years when I was teaching. Children who paid for their lunch brought a snack from home. All students are getting free meals in our schools this year. Now I hear that some schools are packing backpacks with food for the children to take home so they won't be hungry over the weekend. Our government is paying people to get lazier every day. I am sick and tired of seeing young men and women in their teens walking the street pushing babies in strollers and living off government assistance. I would have been ashamed to do this. I knew I was expected to get a college degree and earn a living just as my parents and grandparents had done. We are raising generation after generation to want the very best of everything free and let them sit at home. [/QUOTE]
