As many Americans despair because they can’t even find a job, and as costs for everything soars thanks to Obama’s seriously failing economy, some Americans seem to be doing juuuust fine. At least, if you are a recipient of food stamps on electronic benefits cards, anyway, and this outrageous example should infuriate every American.
Recently a receipt found in a Liberty, Kentucky, Save-a-Lot store from someone who uses an electronic benefits card (EBT) was discovered showing a mind boggling balance on it…
Boy, wouldn’t it be nice to have the federal government hand you more than $5,000 to spend at the grocery store? For free??
As Conservative Tribune notes:
That’s $3,000 more than The Motley Fool estimated was in the average American’s checking account, and nearly a year of welfare payments, according to a liberal columnist at Forbes Magazine who was attempting to persuade Americans that welfare recipients struggle to get by.
I don’t think my household spends $5,000 for a whole year on food!!
Of course, we all know that this *free* five grand is not free. Oh, sure, the welfare recipient may be getting a great deal, but it is the rest of us paying the bills.
