You have created in your head an "us" versus "them" among Americans.

Instead, please realize that it is "we". People on SNAP are not your enemy. They are your fellow citizens. They are your neighbors. They are people you see every day.

Sometimes, they are you.

Further, today is Sunday, a day when many Christians go to church. There are few things more Christ-like than feeding the poor. That is literally what Jesus did. And it is a great example to follow.

That’s why I put poor in quotes. Poor in America isn’t the same thing as poor in other parts of the world.

If my neighbor were a criminal, I would see them as an issue.

Why are you defending leeches and freeloaders?

Are you one yourself?

Retired huh?

Disability?

How old are you?

What a horrible comparison. Being on SNAP is not a crime. Nor are they "leeches and freeloaders".

By far, they are children, elderly, and disabled.

They deserve compassion, and not subject to prejudice and scapegoating.

Again…define disabled.

It is a system ripe with abuse.

You are a moron for not realizing that.

So like I said…ripe with abuse.

You also never answered:

1. Are you on SNAP?

2. Are you “disabled?”

3. How old are you?

No I am not on SNAP and never have been on SNAP. Neither has any of my family, or any of my close friends, at least not that I'm aware of.

I have certain physical limitations, as is common for someone my age, but I have never been determined to be disabled as that word is defined for SNAP purposes.

I am in my 60s.

And none of that is relevant to this discussion. Not sure why you wanted to know so badly.

Because addicts will do and say anything to justify their unacceptable behavior (such as leeching off of hard working people in order to accommodate their sloth and gluttony).
