      Yeah an 18 year old male with no job got around 18 dollars a month and a 65year old man got 22 dollars a month. And they need it but welfare’s queens and fraudulent assholes get whatever they want and don’t co tribute anything to get it

      Single parents should always get enough assistance , not too much , just enough for food , enough for housing , so we could save more money and not live pay check to pay check , unless we're rich .

    And there are many of us on SSI who are on benefits horribly embarrassed to swipe our cards. I hide mine in my hand as i do so hopefully no one can tell its EBT. I appreciate every bit of the assistance though. I didnt earn it, the medical part means I'm still alive. I'm honest with them. For those who are working and supporting those of us who cant- please know this senior says Thank You. Thank You.
