Good day all. Now that the election is over and Der Fubar\u2019s commie butt will be safely ensconced in the White House for another 4 years, the backstabbing has begun.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Right after the election, notices were sent out to Ohio recipients of food stamps that they were going to be cut back by $50\/month starting in January. Needless to say, the locusts who voted for all the free stuff promised by King Putt are in shock over this turn of events. How could this be happening? Here are the details from the ToledoBlade.com<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Ohio families receiving food stamps could get an unwelcome surprise come January: $50 less every month in assistance.<\/p>\n

For the 869,000 households enrolled in the program for the poorest Ohioans, that could amount to about $520 million annually out of the grocery budgets.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Excuse my while I laugh hysterically at this. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!<\/p>\n

Because of the way the federal government calculates utility expenses for people receiving the benefit, a mild winter nationwide last year, and a lower price for natural gas, many families could experience a significant cut in aid, those familiar with the program say.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Ok, I understand that not all the people taking food stamps want to do this. However, Ohio did vote to put Obama\u2019s back in the White House. I don\u2019t think they expected to get shafted like this. In case you haven\u2019t noticed, food prices have been going up rapidly since the SCoaMF took office in 2009. (To be honest, the climb started under that idiot Bush) The reasons are quite simple.<\/p>\n

First, the mandate to put alcohol into gas. They make the alcohol from corn. Normally corn is used to feed people and cattle. Since so much is being made into fuel, (and not very efficient fuel at that), the costs to meat producers is going up. There is also the inflation problem being caused by Ben Bernanke and the Federal Reserve. Those idiots are making the dollar less valuable. Of course, salaries aren\u2019t keeping up so purchasing power is dropping.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are going to increase hunger among our most vulnerable \u2014 working families, seniors, children, and persons with disabilities,\u201d said Lisa Hamler-Fugitt, executive director of the Ohio Association of Foodbanks.<\/p>\n

Ms. Hamler-Fugitt said her organization is particularly concerned that some seniors or persons with disabilities who have a low benefit amount could lose all their monthly assistance.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re really worried about [the change],\u201d she said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And it gets worse. We had a drought issue last summer and crop yields weren\u2019t great. This too will add to the increased costs of food. This could be mitigated somewhat if the EPA would cancel the ethanol requirement for gas. This would allow the grain that would be distilled to be used for cattle feed instead. Since this is the EPA, especially Obama\u2019s EPA, that wont\u2019 happen. They don\u2019t care how many people go hungry, or even starve to death so long as they \u201cSave the planet from human caused Global Warming<\/em><\/span> Climate Change!\u201d In their sick minds, dead people means less damage to Gaia. That\u2019s a \u201cWIN WIN\u201d in their book.<\/p>\n

State and county Job and Family Services officials say there is little they can do other than letting their clients and community partners who provide food assistance know about the changes.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a federal issue,\u201d said Joel Potts, executive director of the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services Directors\u2019 Association. \u201cIt is what it is. They have a formula. … We just think it is going to be really hard on families and individuals. They will see significantly less money starting in January.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is what happens when you pull all authority for handling assistance for the poor from the states and hand it to some One size fits all\u201d bureaucratic clown a thousand miles away. They can\u2019t adapt to local changes, and frankly, don\u2019t care in most cases.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a concern,\u201d said Deb Ortiz-Flores, director of Lucas County\u2019s Job and Family Services agency. \u201cFifty dollars can buy quite a bit of food.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yep, that\u2019s a lot of lobster ((Calling for EBT reform)).<\/p>\n

What\u2019s called the \u201cstandard utility allowance\u201d \u2014 the amount deducted from a person\u2019s income when the state determines his or her eligibility for the food stamp program \u2014 will decrease by $166 for 2013, translating to about $50 less per household in food assistance. State Job and Family Services officials tried to appeal the change to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which oversees the food stamp program, officially known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, but the USDA denied the request.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

People on food stamps, (Other than the welfare chiselers), don\u2019t have a lot of money. They see this as a temporary measure while they try and get their feet back under them. And the way this cutback was determined shows how out of touch with reality the D.C. Bureaucrats are.<\/p>\n

\u201cFifty dollars would be devastating\u201d to families, he said. \u201cThese are folks that have already fallen off the fiscal cliff.\u201d Mr. Frech added that many of his agency\u2019s clients are not affected by lower natural gas prices.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe majority of folks [here] don\u2019t heat with natural gas in the first place,\u201d he said. \u201cThey heat with fuel oil and propane.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And thanks to Der Fubar, oil heat will be going through the roof. Of course, Obama could not care less. He has what he wants. The oval office for another four years. (Unless he manages to get himself impeached for crimes so egregious even the democrats will say he has to go) I\u2019m willing to wager that we are going to see real hardship and possible starvation this winter for the first time since the early 20th<\/sup> century and this time it can be laid right at the doorstep of Big Government. As someone remarked, \u201cI was told if I voted for Romney, I would lose my food stamps. You know what? They were right!\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

No matter what the liberals will tell you, there is no free lunch, and eventually you run out of other people\u2019s money to spend.<\/p>\n

Thatisall<\/p>\n
