Bush) renamed the program Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. Alcohol, tobacco, and non-food household items cannot be purchased under this program. Unlike in the past, where you had actual scrip to use at the store, and it could be illegally sold, the current program uses electronic transfers, and fraud has been greatly reduced.
From: JoeSpareBedroom on 22 Mar 2010 12:03 That's right. Everyone on that program abuses it by buying booze & non-food items. That means 100% of the people. There are none who do not abuse the program. "Mark" <bogusmailmark(a)yahoo.com> wrote in message news:e3c1fdf3-5783-440e-8377-3626c9640749(a)t23g2000yqt.googlegroups.com...

They really need to go BIG with that and make it a "comprehensive" program. Hope you enjoy your Soylent Green...

Who needs 100mb? I can see in schools, but "every home" doesn't need internet that fast. A shared line of 100mb, maybe. But then when your neighbors are all watching movies on line, you'd be complaining about the speed issue. Get DSL and be happy. |
