    I'm just saying that I know I have to work so 50 percent of the country can stay home somehow, I just wish they would refill their electronic benefits on a Monday if it would otherwise be the first day of the month on a weekend.

    That way I don't have to see it first hand. I could barely get through an aisle. Not to mention all the checkers had to work today.

    The problem is Mexicans. If there were no Mexicans, there would be no Produce Sections, so stores would have more square feet to spread out the real groceries. Then all us sleeveless honkies would have elbow room to show off our freckly biceps.

    About 150M of 320M are employed.

    If there are 320 million of us, why is the labor force only 157 million? Do they only count the ones on some list? Seems like a real low number.

    ..................................................
    SNAP benefits renew on the day of the month that corresponds to the last number of a recipients' Social Security number, so you'll be rubbing elbows with "these fuckers" through next weekend.

    That is how it works in Oregon.

    Nope. Not in Nevada. It's a fukn madhouse in Winco today.
    http://www.fns.usda.gov/snap/snap-monthly-benefit-issuance-schedule

    It took forever to find the answer, I read multiple times where nobody will know you're using it before I found this page that told me when they are released.

    And it ain't Mexicans. I saw more mullets on kids today than when I was in High School in the early 90s.

    google when do Nevada snap benefits refresh, or when do Nevada welfare cards reload and it doesn't just pop up.

    I wish they would do what Oregon does at the least. We made the mistake of getting up early and going hiking on the Amargosa Trail by my house. Henderson has amazing parks and trails. We should have gone grocery shopping first, if you get there before 10 it isn't a zoo like it is when the people who don't work finally roll out of bed and get their free shit.

    I love how when people debate this they get defensive about people buying fruit loops and frozen burritos but I see it with my own eyes every time. If they did it everywhere like they do here maybe more people would see the truth.

    I like how I get to see 2 skinny white chicks with neck tattoos shopping with a baby in the cart. The oldest one is usually about 35 and you see her grandchild we are all feeding. Awesome.

    Or just adjust your shopping habits so you dont have to be there on the 1st. There are 29 other options

    Did that change in Oregon? I used to work for winco while In college and it would be a madhouse on the 1st with people and their ebt cards. We would also be told that they replenished on the first and basically all checkers would have to work that day if it was on a weekend

    Also, yeah I'd just try to go shopping a different day. I know I get pissed at these people. Some of them buy the best meats and blow through the Oregon trail money on the first, then complain about how cheap the state is in giving them food stamps by the 20th because all they can afford is top ramen.

    Also hate seeing a cart full of soda, chips, candy, sugar cereal, and cheese crackers , then they whip out the food stamps card. There should be a nutritional guideline like WIC

    Don't swallow Republican talking points. Most of those people are either too old, too young, or too disabled to work.

    Yep.... Let's start a whole thread to rant about poor people.

    Newsflash: in the time it took to write your post complaining about the poor schlub who bought a Snickers with his Oregon Trail Card, GE just stole about 9K from us....
