The real question is what will whites do when they can't eat off of food stamps?


Yup. Never heard so many of these conservative fukking crackers, who supposedly hate socialism, cry about the possibility of not getting their Veteran's GI Bill money next month.

It was amazing to witness the cognitive dissonance.

SNAP: Frequently Asked Questions

Who uses SNAP?
SNAP eligibility rules require that participants be at or below 130% of the Federal Poverty Level. Recent studies show that 49% of all SNAP participants are children (age 18 or younger), with almost two-thirds of SNAP children living in single-parent households. In total, 76% of SNAP benefits go towards households with children, 16% go to households with disabled persons, and 9% go to households with senior citizens.
According to demographic data, 43% of SNAP participants are white, 33% are African-American, 19% are Hispanic, 2% are Asian, and 2% are Native American.

How many people use SNAP in the United States?
As of August 2011, 45.8 million persons were participating in SNAP.

What is the average SNAP benefit?
In 2010, the average SNAP client received a monthly benefit of $133.79, and the average household received $289.61 monthly.

What percent of the people who are eligible participate in SNAP?
According to the most recent data, approximately 67% of people who are eligible for SNAP actually participate in the program.

Where can SNAP benefits be used?
SNAP benefits are acceptable forms of payment at any SNAP retailer. SNAP retailers can apply for certification online through the USDA. All SNAP retailers must meet basic eligibility requirements: the retailer must sell foods that fit into the four staple food groups (including meat, poultry, or fish; bread or cereal; vegetables or fruits; and dairy products) on a continuous basis, or more than half of the total dollar amount of all retail sales from the store must come from the sale of eligible staple foods.

What can SNAP benefits buy?
SNAP benefits can be used to purchase all food products, not including: beer, wine, liquor, cigarettes, or tobacco; any nonfood items; vitamins and medicines; foods that will be eaten in the store; or hot foods.

You pay into the government, dumbass. Welfare, social security, etc..

Also, since I am a veteran, I can tell you with 100% confidence that what I receive for tuition payments and living allowance to go to school under the new GI Bill is exponentially much larger than what I put in.

It paid around $20,000 for tuition and feeds this semester alone, and will pay around $5,500 to $6,600 for living allowance this semester. This is a 3.5 month span. Nearly $26,000 for ONE semester. I'm about to graduate soon.

Dumbass.

Depending what you are doing in the military, the benefits might not be worth it. Think about it hard. Do your own research and don't let the recruiter do it for you.

If you have any questions, you can message me.

Motherfukka I know how the G.I. bill works, I receive it. Paying into the welfare and social security is MUCH different than paying into a G.I. bill regarding socialism because the G.I. bill isn't for everyone, nor do you have to participate in the program. Just because the government gives you money doesn't mean it's a form of socialism. Financial aid for school would fit better in line with socialism than the G.I. Bill. Read a book.

If I pay into a system $5 and I receive back $10,000 to use, that money comes from a social pool, does it not? Are you implying that the money comes from private sources?

If you're using the post 9/11 GI Bill you know damn well you receive several magnitudes of more money than you put in. Matter of fact, If I remember correctly, military people who entered after the post 9/11 bill went into affect don't even have to contribute to use it. They only have to be in a certain amount of years.

Kick rocks ho. :camby:
