Many, MANY, people trade their SNAP benefits for cash (to buy drugs) or just the benefits themselves for drugs.

That's a GREAT point. Charities will give you food. But they won't hand you 300 bucks cash for no reason.

More people than ever will donate groceries to food banks on Nov 1st because of an EBT shut down. I will definitely do it. They'll have more food than ever. They'll have extra volunteers, including me.

But I'm not handing Methany a stack of 20s.

You typically can't get prepared food with EBT, only groceries.

So it won't impact fast food.

It was either during covid or right after that food delivery companies like UberEats began advertising they were EBT eligible. Even at the gas station they have a sticker saying EBT eligible on their pre-made meals. It has become very profitable to lobby to gain access to EBT and now it is basically free game on what it can be used on. This does vary by state but the overall trend is that now these overpriced luxury services like food delivery and prepared foods are now fair game for EBT. Feels good knowing tax dollars are letting people spend $20 to get a $2 frozen burrito.

All EBT payments stop by November 1st. This thread is intended to serve as containment for related news articles, chimpouts, and relevant commentary.

At least 25 states plan to end the program. These include states with a high nigger population (Arkansas and Mississippi) and states in deep financial trouble (California and New Jersey).

Will the nation burn once more? Will niggers chimp out more than usual? Or will Nothing Ever Happens chads win again?

Talking to buddies with the LAPD and LASO, possible tactical alert will be issued on the first of the month if benefits aren't on the cards.

Sounds like they expect massive chimp outs.

Think about it, what subset of the population spends its time on a internet gossip forum to discuss news? There's plenty of weed adicts, products of single mothers, old gooners, the unemployed, and other kinds of terminally online individuals here.

When you really think about it, it makes sense. But I know almost no one personally in canada who makes regular use of benefits. Perhaps it is just due to our system being different.

What do you think is going to happen when the mainstream media airs a recording of a Black woman getting arrested or beaten for "Jus tryin to feed dem keedz" even if she was in the wrong?

In my opinion "journalists" should be jailed.

Either way we have to rip the bandaid off sooner or later.

EBT scamming is big business and almost all of them use canned cola as a way to liquidate cash out of the program. Knew a bunch that would sell to small businesses.

Good point. I saw a guy park a pickup truck outside Costco once, then fill it with tortillas, canned beans and jars of salsa. But it was a line of women handing it to him. He obviously had a restaurant.

It took me a while to figure out what was happening, but the beaner women were selling their EBT food. Costco sells memberships at a HUGE discount to people on EBT. It's something like 10 bucks per year, and only they charge that to limit shoplifters by getting IDs for memberships.
 
To all the EBT niggers ITT:
The USA is the cheapest country in the world, and you can easily feed yourself here for about $25 a month.


I just finished such a $25 month. I have to say- not once was I hungry. Actually, sometimes I was too full.


Now, I don’t count drinks as food, obviously- eating is eating and drinking is drinking- and I spent about $50 just on Coke (2 liters a day, sometimes another liter at night).


So, let’s get to the $25 meal plan.
To survive a month for $25 you need:

  • 1 kg rice- about $0.75
  • 1 kg pasta- about $0.60
  • 1 kg barley - about $0.50
  • 6 kg potatoes- about $2
  • 2 kg margarine- about $1.25
  • 150 bread rolls- about $12.50
  • 10 boxes of Cocoa Crunchies- about $5
  • 15 packets of sauce mix, $0.12 each- about $1.75, or a few ready-made sauces for around $0.75 each

Total: about $25.
I even had $1.75 left from that twenty-five. Not bad.


How do we eat?
In the morning, cook up a pot of sauce- that’ll last you two days.


Week 1 – pasta. 5 rolls a day, half a box of Cocoa Crunchies.
Week 2 – rice. 5 rolls a day, half a box of Cocoa Crunchies.
Week 3 – barley. 5 rolls a day, half a box of Cocoa Crunchies.
Week 4 – potatoes, 5 rolls, half a box of Cocoa Crunchies.


Instead of Cocoa Crunchies you can buy chocolate spread- 400 g for $0.65- or off-brand chocolate puffs, about $0.30–$0.50 for 300 g.


So the meal plan is tested and very filling- I even had some rice and barley left, because a kilo per week is honestly more than enough.


The only things I missed were yogurt, cheese, and fish.
But I could easily repeat such a month- and I’m saying this as someone who loves to eat, stuff themselves, even overeat.


One George Washington, and you’re fed for the whole month.
The veggies are in the sauce, and the vitamins are in the Crunchies- all the vitamins and minerals that you need.
