Given that inflation has occurred several families are being affected.

Christopher Watson

A lot of people won't be buying gifts this year, I know I don't plan too, it's just too tight right now, and like the last two years, you never know what's next!

Zaos Gonzolez

Who don’t I know that’s struggling? Mayor Buffaloe, City council members, and everyone in the collectors office.

Zaos Gonzolez

I meant, who I don’t know, that are not struggling.

Max DeYoung

Best recession since Jimmy Carter.

Zaos Gonzolez

I speculate that this isn’t a recession, it’s more like a controlled demolition. The only way to start over with a new system is to get rid of the old one.

It is the leading story on most of major news sites. It was all a made up game with a predetermined conclusion. How many dems/republicans are laughing and patting themselves on the back this morning telling each other 'Same time next year?'

Don't care one way or another, nor do those making the decisions in Congress, as they still are getting a paycheck.

Defund all welfare programs. Make people responsible for their own actions.

Max

SNAP is primarily funded by the U.S. federal government through congressional appropriations, with the USDA providing the funds, and states administering the program and covering their share of administrative costs.

Trump won this. SCOTUS ruled in favor of Trump.

Trump basically has no say in this, it's on the shoulders of Congress. Might want to study what all the 111th Congress did back in 2009-11... this is all about payback.

Zaos Gonzolez

Spend the money on something else. Send missiles to israel instead.

Toasty

Its all a game both sides are playing with real people in the middle. Trump should step aside and tell congress this mess is all theirs.

Max

Schumer knows this is all on the backs of the democrats.
