Lottery Winner still getting and using Food Stamps

[DJD]

I heard this turd on the radio and I just shook my head in disgust.

why you would even go through the hassle when you have money makes no sense

Because it is free money.

Hell if Obama gets elected again, I'm going to figure out how to CHEAT every **** system out there.

Quit my job, hide my retirement plans, and get me some GUBMENT monies....

Later,

It's my understanding that the bimbo didn't go through any hassles at all. She was ALREADY on food stamps when she won the lottery...which makes me ask the question: "If a person can't afford to buy food then how the heck can they afford to buy a lottery ticket?"

Tell you all what else really burns my britches...standing in line at the gocery and being behind someone using their little food stamp card while talking on a cell phone....once again, if you're on food stamps how can you afford a cell phone?

When applying for food stamps if there's a question anywhere on the application that asks for a phone number the person can be reached at and they give a cell phone number in response, that should be an automatic clue to turn the applicant down in my opinion. I don't know, maybe I'm being to critical.

Naw Tim not critical enough......they should also be drug tested once in a while. The gubment has made it to comfortable (in many cases) to be on assistance. This turd was just another case of it. It's also a shining example of what's to come if obumacare stays in place. It will be just another gubment program that gets abused.

Although I'm not an advocate of doing away with assistance programs, we do a miserable job of policing these programs... Along with lottery tickets and cell phones I would add cigarettes and alcohol to the list and I'm sure there are many other things that folks want but don't need that these folks seem to have routinely... I know of a couple motorcycle riders who get food stamps...If you can afford a motorcycle...............
