What Are The Chances Of A Food Stamp Collapse In November?

[GOPerfect]

Same thing here in this part of Western New York where I live.

I live where I do for a reason, that didn't happen by accident.

35 years ago, when I moved from the rural swamps of South Carolina to Western New York, I was looking to buy a property that would help in my transition and my way of life as I knew it. So I bought a property that was surrounded by swamps.

#1. No public sidewalks (human highways) anywhere nearby.
#2. No bus routes anywhere nearby.
#3. Everyone here looks like me if you catch my drift, well, except for the Indians, but the tribe that I live next to are good people for the most part.
#4. Private well, municipal water just seems like a really bad idea to me. YMMV
#5. Rednecks, Swamp People, Indians, Dogs and Backhoes. Woo Hoo!

The difference here in these swamps in WNY is that there are no venomous snakes or alligators. But if somebody has to live in New York State, where I'm at is the place to be. IMHO

YES!!!

We searched high and low for the perfect (best) place in our budget.

The closest sidewalk to me is at least 5 miles away.

Bus route?? There are NO busses here. Not a single bus stop in the entire county.

The look, indeed, I catch the drift. Again, we choose very wisely. Demographics were HIGH on the list.

We are on public water. A well on the property is on the list to get done.

The people here are doing everything they can to keep things this simple.

The government shutdown has shown us just how many leeches think they’re entitled to our hard earned money.

It’s crazy…

I think in my area; if people are hungry because they have limited finances, they’ll hunt deer.

I think in my area; if people are hungry because they have limited finances, they’ll hunt deer.

If they are already and have been deer hunters and have that background in life, yeah, I can see it.

That's how it is here where I live. We hunt deer even when we are not hungry. Ask me how I know.
Plus, the gardens and farm markets, and just the way of life around here.

I swear, my stands are located on a deer Thruway. There are so many deer around here, it's ridiculous. In fact, as I have posted here before. A mile down the road from me, there is a road sign (deer crossing sign) that doesn't say the usual "deer crossing for 1 mile" or whatever.
The road sign I'm talking about says "Deer Crossing Everywhere"

Now that the rut has started, driving down these back roads, especially at night, is sketchy at this time. A friend of mine hit one a couple of mornings ago while driving to his work/job.

 

[Bigfoot]

Let the looting begin!

I suppose that's easy for someone like me to say.
Being that I'll be watching from a comfortable distance.

But shit just might get real in the inner cities. IDK.
Time will tell in a couple of weeks. Maybe the Government shutdown will end by then.
But the Democrats are completely unhinged at this point, so I wouldn't count on it.

 

[Bigfoot]

All this talk about food has made me hungry, so I put a frozen French bread pizza into the toaster oven. Funny how that works. lol

 

[spat]

When I went to school during the 1970s, there was no such thing as a school breakfast. Back then, parents or even the kids themselves made breakfast at home before going to school.

There was no such thing as lunch programs either. Parents sent their kids to school with a lunch made at home or money to purchase the school lunch, which didn't cost very much.


I think I might be straying off topic again, so I'll stop for now.

School lunches should be tasty, nutritious, and dirt cheap.

They were all three when I was a kid.

And they shouldn't be free, but I think there should be some work available at the school for any kid that needs lunch money. Maybe spend an hour a week cleaning bathrooms or helping in the library and you're covered.

It's not about the money, it's about the lesson. It's not just that there isn't such a thing as a free lunch, there *shouldn't* be.

 

[spat]

We have a lot of poor here. Dirt poor, good folk.

I do not foresee much looting or stealing from the food stores.

Our demographics do not fit that mold.

Sure, I am positive that some will steal, but not too many.

The democrats have themselves convinced that criminals aren't responsible for their anti-social behavior. It's an article of faith for them.

That's why it's practically a mantra for them that poverty causes crime. But my experience is different. I think you get just as many miscreants in the middle class and the rich as you do the poor. Some of the finest people I've known have been dirt poor.

 

[Bigfoot]

Let the countdown begin. Woo Hoo! I'm looking forward to watching videos of the SHTF in the inner cities. Sorry, not sorry. lol

Will the Democrat politicians give in to the Orange Man Good?

Or will the Democrat politicians hold their line and put their very own voter base (the Free Shit Army) in a bad position when it comes to their free food? Especially when considering the hang-up during this shutdown is whether or not the illegal criminal aliens have access to free healthcare.

The American-born Free Shit Army now has competition from the Foreign-born Free Shit Army. And our homegrown Free Shit Army can't be too happy about that, I would think.

The great thing is that the Democrat Party is now controlled by the radicals within the party.
And the radicals are too fucking stupid to know when to put the shovel down. I don't think this shutdown is going to be good for the Democrats in the long run.

We're living in interesting times, that's for sure.

Federal Workers Line Up at Food Banks After Dem Whip Calls Them ‘Leverage’​

A Washington, DC-area food bank serving federal workers impacted by the government shutdown ran out of items on Friday morning while people were still waiting in line — one day after House Minority Whip Katherine Clark (D-MA) called suffering families a “leverage” to use against Republicans.
A “massive line” of government employees and contractors gathered at a Capital Area Food Bank drive in northern Virginia to get much-needed groceries before the organization ran out of food “just over an hour into distribution,” PBS News’ Lisa Desjardins reported:
There are an estimated 700,000 federal workers across the U.S. who have been furloughed due to the shutdown, which is now on day 24. The Washington, DC area, including Virginia and Maryland, are home to about 20 percent of the federal workforce.

Judging by the cars ... Everyone makes plenty of money

So, in just over 3 weeks time they have emptied their cupboards and freezers and bank accounts too? I think they need to prepare a little bit!

USDA Warns It Can't Use Contingency Funds To Cover SNAP In November​

The federal government shutdown entered Day 25 on Saturday, with cryptocurrency-based prediction market Polymarket showing odds in the single digits that Democrats and Republicans will reach a resolution before November 3. The market currently assigns a 15% probability that the shutdown will end between November 12 and 15.
We have warned readers of the potential for major disruptions to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) if the federal government remains closed. Betting odds markets and limited political chatter in the Capitol Beltway this weekend (so far) suggest a resolution to the shutdown remains muted for next week.

In 2025, around 42 million people relied on SNAP benefits, which accounted for 12% of the population. This is more than enough people to create chaos should SNAP funds run dry in the coming weeks.
And now, as Jill McLaughlin details below for The Epoch Times, Gov. Glenn Youngkin declared a state of emergency in Virginia on Oct. 23 to provide relief for residents at risk of losing federal food benefits next month.

Four out of five households that receive SNAP payments include either a child, an elderly person, or someone with a disability, the USDA reported.

We could not leave our property for 3 weeks and the only thing we'd be missing would be fresh milk and cream for coffee.

Wonder how much milk you can get from one of those miniature highland cows. I don't need 100lbs a day from a full size one....

I can't look away ...

3 Weeks, easy. Cream for the coffee, I have that covered with non-dairy creamer. ONLY in emergencies though.

I also have bags of powered milk. Again, not my first choice.

 

[TEOTWAWKI inc.]

I hope there will be much less governmemt subsidized demand for steak soon. If SNAP runs out, I should face less competition in the grocery store. Maybe much more competition in the grocery store parking lot though...

Know what might be cool? Cash only no reserve auctions at the butcher shop. No EBT allowed.

It's working!

 

[spat]

Oh, we have suitable alternatives, but we would absolutely miss having fresh.

Oh, and I looked it up. They say those miniature cows are good for 2 gallons of milk a day. That just seems like a ton from something the size of a great dane.

 

[TEOTWAWKI inc.]

One Nubian goat can produce 1-2 gallons of high butterfat milk per day, for up to 305 days. That should be way more than enough milk, butter, and cheese for a family of four in a year. We aren't actively looking right now, but if I came across 2 nubian doelings and a buck, I'd buy them without hesitation. I'd love to have a jersey milk cow but it's just so much damn milk.

So, going by that prediction, I figure the Democrat voting base, aka the Free Shit Army.
Will be rioting, looting, and causing mayhem for 2 weeks, maybe more.

Its a lot of time and commitment to milk twice a day for essentially the fun of it, let alone the struggle of keeping your does segregated to avoid premature freshening. Then there is the problem of goats being vile, disgusting, evil creatures.

My guess is Trump is going to have to do something before then. These people arent kidding, they have no objections to rioting looting stealing. and they sure as hell are not going to let thier kids starve. So they are forced to do something or the citys will burn . if there is one thing that ensures civil unrest its hunger. Hunger is a motivator,

the one guy in the video said he was going to wallmart and take whatever he wants and break shit. I dont understand the the reasoning for destroying stores, wallmart didnt do anything to anyone . I dont get it.

the thing these ""people"" dont get is that there will be no resupply of the markets they rob, trucks wont come managers wont reorder, nobody to stock shelves , cashiers wont go to work . Some stores probably wont reopen after the riots .

there will be no consequences to robbing looting and stealing so they have a free pass . And it wont be limited to food

The government should have taught them how to fish, instead of feeding them everyone else`s fish.

But we all know that the government does this for 2 reasons:
1) Distractions while politicians lie and get rich
2) Keeps the politicians in power

"VOTE FOR ME, VOTE FOR MEEEE, I`LL TAKE CARE OF YOUR FAMILY FOR FREEEEE" (for generations!)
Until the other peoples money dries up.... then the riots begin.

Yup, i believe what you`re laying down here. Somebody is gonna have to cave. It better be the demOrats!

 

[holdover]

Dems wont cave, its their ace in the hole. they cant wait to place the blame on Trump they're hoping there's country wide riots , they're rubbing their hands together waiting for it

Chickens and goats seem to be worth keeping around just in case there are any major supply chain disruptions, for whatever reason. Plus, I really don't trust anything that comes from a grocery store anymore.

 

[JaguarJaguarGolf]

While the food riots happen; I wonder how many flat screens and I-phones will be stolen

 

[GOPerfect]

If SNAP were cutoff in the US, Walmart US stores would have a negative operating margin.

SNAP is literally what makes Walmart profitable. Might want a short Walmart stock if we're going to stay shut down.
