Yeah they give more foodstamps then cash. I had foodstamps for awhile and they gave me like 700 a month. That is more then most people who do not have foodstamps get every month. I often did not spend all of it and it would roll over to the next month. At one point I had 1200 dollars in foodstamps because I budgeted right and bought food that was not bad for us.
Woe to those who call evil good, thats what we've done. We've lost & reversed R values. We exploited the poor & called it the lottery. We reward laziness & called it welfare/foodstamps. We neglecte to discipline R children & called it building self esteem. We abuse powew & call it politics. We pollut the air with profanity & pornography & called it freedom of expression. We ridiculed values of R forefathers & called it enlightenment. Search us, Oh God, Set us free !
(cont) But please understand, it was practically a revolutionary act to disbelieve the advice of 1970-era stupid govt guidelines and to be aware that the food that was pushed at us (corndogs! sugar-coated cereal with marshmellows and chocolate bits!) wwas poison. And it was very hard when elec was off no refrig no stove. It can be done but you gotta be willing to be considered crazy by the stupid world. Its worth it XXX over, but if don't know, how to learn?? Not school!
I got food stamps through most of the years I was raising my children. I knew that they had to go without a lot because of our poverty but with food stamps I could at least give them good healthy home cooking. It was work (dragging 4-5 bags of groceries through 2 bus rides) but my kids were healthy and bright without the constant runny noses and ear infections their friends had. They never ONCE had white bread or white rice or potato chips and our only sweets were homemade coffecake or cookies.
If you couldn't afford your children then you shouldn't have had children! Get your fucking tubes tied after the first mistake if you cannot afford more!
I swear the stupidest people with the least amount of self control are those that reproduce the most!
Birth control is available everywhere. The ability to control reproduction regulating it only to appropriate times is one of the the only things that separates humans from animals. If you cannot afford children and you are not responsible enough to take a pill once a day then get fixed like a fuckin cat!
Self control is almost non existent. The baby boomer generation is the perfect example they lived on credit and saved nothing.
@Rockynurse What if you planned everything like you say and you get married and have children thinking you are financially set. Then you or your spouse is laid off? Or one of you dies and you cannot make ends meet? Are people like that included in this statement?
Yo man, wherez myz foo' 'tamps? Obama say he give me 'tamps to feedz myz chilrenz. I gots 10 chilrenz wi' no daddy to feed. Hahahahahahahahahahaahahaaaaaaaa...
U C this video is about food stamps NOT about food nutrition
But people who SAY they need support from the government to sustain their lives. The government gives them some assistance to stay ALIVE. The assistance is not to give them a balance highly nutritious above the norm cuisine. It to help them to get through some tough times. Since there were only 120 starvation deaths in the USA last year (all from psycho anorexics none of the 31 million food stampers R starving.
Had to come back to this vid to answer another know nothing viewer, & noticed your comment from 5 months ago about a can of processed cheese being different or the same as a WHEEL of cheese. We are talking about poor people on budgets who need food stamps. A real wheel of cheese at $6 per pound costs over $120. Obviously the answer is processed cheese is not the same as bread, or a cat or a wheel of cheese. But it contains the calories necessary to get u through your temporary setback
what i dont get is when u c stuff like this its always fat people. they always want u 2give food or money 2 the food banks,where a bunch of fat ass people r lined up with their hand out.
Bull shit I work as a sacker and saw this lady buy 400 dollars worth of food stamps and when I saw her remaining balance she still had 600???? WTF. OHH and guess what she wasn't dying of hunger she was fat just like her husband, oh well Thats life it full of bull shit people like that.
when people use the term empty calorie it is in reference to the food the calories are contained in as lacking vitamins and fats and other nutritionally valuable elements.. you mentioned canned cheese.. surely you don't think canned nacho cheese from Sam's has the nutritional value as a wheel of fresh cheddar cheese.. there's no point in trowing insults.. if you believe the canned cheese is the same, explain why..
WHAT IS A CLORIE?? Ill help you out IT IS ONLY ENERGY.
Vitamins and minerals have NO ENERGY they only act as co-enzymes and radicals.
AND who said anything about a wheel of fresh cheddar cheese?????? these people are on a budget of $3 a day how are they going to buy a WHOLE WHEEL of cheese ??? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU.
Besides being obtuse you just dont get it.
SO LET US HEAR YOUR IMMEDEATE SOLUTION??? To the food stamp problem not the F'n farmers
First butt head I would like to hear your definition of a calorie
Then tell me what ever you mean by an empty calorie.
You dont even have a clue what a calorie in the first place, you know nothing repeating parrot. And dont start with NUTRITION as you dont have a clue what nutrition even means.
u also know noting about elements & their inability to dissolve under any circumstance.
Elements have been in the Universe for longer than the EARTH some up to 14 billion years. u can NEVER EVER EVER dissolve them. Tell me about the Krebs Cycle & how proteins, fats, and carbs zip through there to produce ATPs & how that is a part of your empty calorie buzz word.
I know quite well the VARIOUS definitions of the term dissolve, one of which means to disintegrate. don't lecture me on English, i know the language quite well. with that said, I am finished arguing with you because it is apparent that you are ignorant of Nutrition, Chemistry, Economics, English and many other disciplines; this is a complete waste of my time..
THEN PLEASE tell me what it is that you put into an EMPTY CALORIE to make it a jam packed calorie. Firm and full. Wondrous and lovely. Then tell me how much more you can raise the temperature of one CC of water with your famous FULL calorie over an ordinary fast food EMPTY calorie.
The only FAT soluable vitamins are ADE&K you putz. The rest are water soluable u total know nothing. Further the only stuff that can leave your body in your Urine is stuff that was absorbed into your blood in the first place and was then filtered through the Kidneys you absolute dumb shit. It is obvious that you also know ABSOLUTLY nothing about MACRO economics. I repeat this video is about $3/day FS not local farmers & the SLOW food movement was only started to contrast FAST food (chains)
Where do you think the vitamins and minerals you get from food sources traverse?? You RETARD. Dont they go into your intestinal fluids??? You IDIOT. & Vitamins are almost all just co-enzymes you magnificent MORON. So lets see then you say the minerals Ca, K, I, Cu, Na, Cl etc are fat soluble?? You total NUMBSKULL. Drop a penny or Iron in some vegetable oil and see if it dissolves you CRETIN. They can not dissolve they are elements you IMBECEL.
you fuckin nitwit, i see you dont understand functions of the body either; things that are absorbed into the blood CELLS don't get filtered. the Kidneys filter materials that cant be absorbed blood. that is why when you take pill vitamins it can sometime change the color of your urine. that is because that pigment in your pee is the vitamins that weren't used by blood cells. furthermore, if given enough time, a penny could dissolve in fat but you never eat copper that large do you, jackass?
I think you misunderstood my point, as is to be expected of a person of such limited intelligence, so let me state more clearly. Of course you cant expect the crystalline structure of an element the size of a penny to immediately breakdown in fats but they can be eroded and dissolved if given enough time. your point is extraneous because no one eats any element of the size of a penny, anyways. when was the last time you found a fat ass chuck of copper in a piece of crab or potato, dickhead?
No Idiot, the Slow Food Movement was NOT started ONLY to contrast Fastfood; keep researching buddy. it was started to disseminate the concept of elegance in cooking and eating, supposing that a better appreciation of the foods we eat will engender more social interaction that may resolve some social, economic and environmental problems.
you mentioned biochemical cofactor but you obviously failed to understand the concept.. A penny is a rather large piece of a pure element; as such no biological interaction can occur. the pieces of elements that we use are merely ion attached to proteins; that is, the proteins are part of the structure of the element. if the proteins are broken down (i.e. by the fats) then the element can then synthesize with the fat and thus be dissolved..
According to this numbskull the food stamp problem is due to the gas prices being over $3 a gallon. Well guess what??? Now the gas price has fallen back down closer to $2 and change. Soooooooo does that mean there is no longer a food stamp crisis or was his gasoline thing just a bunch of smoke??
And where do Vegans get their la-de-da protein??? Some thought on this please any thinking at all. Any thought process would be good. Not just parrot talk or VOTE talk but real thinking.
By-the-way there are over one half million calories within the food items listed below from Sams. On the average 2,000 calorie per day diet that would be enough for 250 days for one person, or 25 days for 10 people, if you do not waste any. With this combination of food besides the daily macaroni and cheese, rice and beans you can make bread, tortillas, pancakes, birthday cakes, muffins, biscuits, pop corn snacks, popcorn ball treats, waffles, cookies, quesadillas, cheese over rice, and etc
Pay attention- At Sams Club you can buy the following for less than $219: 50lb long grain rice $22 50lb pinto beans $26 50lb pop corn$17 50lb bag of sugar $21 50 lb bag flour$13 4lb box salt $1 6-10 lb cans cheese $66 6 lbs macaroni $5 5 lbs baking powder $6 2.5 gal Mazola oil $18 60 eggs $5 300 one/day vitamin $19 now get 9 of your friends together & buy this Tell me 10 people could not live on over 350 pounds of food for one week.
Do a google, educate your self on what NUTRITION actually is. And then get back with me as to WHAT nutrition IS so that I can answer your question. Please DO NOT tell me that nutrition is a particular food group like vegetables, or fruits. Tell me what u get from those food groups that is nutritious so that I can tell u where the nutrition located in this list of foods. Further the $21 a week is handed out monthly per person. A mother & child she get $180 & could buy this stuff in one go
I already study nutrition. pop corn, salt, flour & sugar are empty calories, there is no diversity in vegetables in you list, there is no meat (poultry or fish). eating canned 'cheese' and eggs will inevitably lead to hear disease i guess that is supposed to be offset by the vitamins, lol. like i said where is the nutrition? furthermore you have to be realistic. no 10 people are going to to to same together to buy bullshit! what we need to do is support local and urban farming, that may help!
So Rey do you really think that if we throw more money at the local farmers that somehow we will no longer need to give out food stamps. And that once the local farmers get more money all of a sudden the food stamp people will get more NUTRITION?? This video is about surviving on $3 a day. SURVIVING not buying a house and car and paying for your kids tuition. I showed U how 2 people with $3 a day can make it.
Your comeback wasno co-operation, You probably dont even know what a calorie is.
if you actually studied nutrition, which at this point you obviously didn't, you would know that natural vitamins from food sources are better because most vitamins and mineral are soluble in fats such as those we get from meats and vegetable oils. so therefore, when you take a pill and it traverses through your intestinal fluids which are comprised mostly of water, the majority of the vitamins are flushed when you urinate.. you simply don't know what the hell you're are talking about..
...And absolutely we need to help the local farmers. if there wasn't so much strain on them competing with these national grocers and keeping more of the profit from the things that they produce then the farmers would be making more money, which could in turn create more jobs; this way more people wouldn't have to rely on food stamps. also you have to consider sustainability.. most corporate farms are responsible for destroying the environment with emphasis on profit rather than conservation.
you need to learn about the slow food movement because you obviously don't see the link between the commercialization of food and an ailing environment, collective lack of nutrition, and the destruction of peoples' livelihoods..
while Millions are on Food Stamp. the banksters who caused the recession are on BONUS ALERT...more BONUSES TO COME. LOL

Abolish food stamps! Learn how to feed yourselves instead of leaching off of people who actually work to produce things in the country.
ps. why are so many people who don't know how to feed themselves obese?!? not making a whole lotta sense.

12% of Cottage cheese is protein by weight
11% of weatbreaed is protein by weight
10% of corn meal is protein by weight
A 50 KG person (150lbs) needs 50 grams of protien per day
One serving of cottage cheese (228 grams) provides 56% of the DV (58grams)
