  1. Food stamps at restaurants, convenience stores and everywhere but a grocery store should be illegal but EBT signs say welcome everywhere. Of course there is massive fraud,

  2. This food stamp shinola has been in place since LBJ’s ‘Great Society’. AKA, niggah vote da right way and the dough will keep on rollin’ in. And Republicans knew it was the third rail, so nobody touched it for fear of instant death.

    Until Trump.

    Should we enact our own US political calendar? Much like Pope Gregory, who invented the BC and AD?
    BT and AT?

    Needs work.

    But my point is that there is a political tectonic shift going on. A milestone equal to or greater than our previous outsider President, Ronald Reagan.

    And isn’t this the way the Founders dreamed about the new nation? Citizens sacrificing of their time and treasure to serve their country for a brief time.
    A. Brief. Time.

    Not apparatchiks whose entire existence revolves around government and the largesse and immense wealth and power it provides them.

    This President has his head in the right place and is already legendary in my mind.

  3. This burger joint in smack dab in the middle of a neighborhood called South Park which is in Beaumont, Texas. I grew up in South Park in the 50’s and 60’s. I am here to say that back in those days, South Park was an absolutely wonderful place to grow up in or to raise a family. I can’t really explain the sense of community that South Parkers had during that time. We didn’t really think of ourselves as being from Beaumont because South Park had it’s own school district known as SPISD. That happened because of the Spindletop Oil Boom in 1903. Thousands of oil workers flooded the area to find jobs. The BISD refused to allow the oilfield workers to send their kids to their schools so the oilfield workers formed their own schools. What BISD didn’t realize was that all the tax revenue from the oil fields and refineries flowed into the SPISD coffers making it a very rich school district. At one time, it was the 19th richest school district in the nation. So, Beaumont was a city with two separate school districts within it’s borders. Over the decades, BISD tried to merge with SPISD but South Park wasn’t having any of it. South Park kids were getting a much better education. In the 80’s, a crooked lawyer devised a scheme to force the merger by absolving BISD which forced SPISD, under state law, to absorb BISD. Three months later, the scumbag people of Beaumont voted out the SPISD school board and then replaced them with the old corrupt BISD school board. The name was quickly changed to BISD and South Park was no more. This one shitty act killed Beaumont, Texas and today it is nothing more than a smaller version of Baltimore. South Park today is virtually 100% black and a very dangerous place to live. The state of Texas recently had to take over the Beaumont school district because half of the school board went to prison for embezzlement and corruption. In 1973, Beaumont’s population was 121,000. Today, it is 117,000. Most of the decent people were forced to move out to surrounding communities mainly because of the situation with the schools. I know times change, but I miss what South Park used to be. It was a great place to live and grow up in.

  4. De-frauding a fraud.
    $71,000 is chump change compared to what’s defrauded out of Food Stamps, SNAP, and WIC every day.

    Somebody didn’t get his cut.
