What an ass! I for one AM on snap. Let's see, I found out I had cancer the same month my son was diagnosed with autism..... so, being on public assistance was not in my plans, but guess what? Life has a way of knocking you down when you are already as low as you can get. I was always a worker. I started working when I was 14 years old a never stopped..... but, when I was fired because I had to many responsibilities at home( my son) and too sick(cancer) to start a new job, I had no choice because I could not let my child starve. And trust me, that $60 dollars a month I get from snap does not go far! My point being, some of us have no choice, and yes my pride is in the mud and stomped on. But I know things will get better! So my point is. Try to take my lottery winnings( as if I would ever win haha) and you answer to the devil sir! That all mighty dollar! I swear the nerve of people that have never been there and will NEVER understand. Shame on you!
