Uh Oh: 47 Million Food Stamp Recipients Are Having Their Benefits Cut Back On November 1st



47.6 million Americans are about to have their food stamp benefits cut, and most of them have absolutely no idea that it is about to happen.  Needless to say, a lot of them are going to be very angry when they discover that they cannot buy as much food for their families anymore.  The reason that this is happening is because a temporary boost to food stamp benefits that was put in during the last recession is expiring.  But most of the people that are having their benefits cut will not understand this.  Most of them will just be very upset that the government is “taking money away” from them.  And considering the “mini-riots” that we witnessed earlier this month when the system that processes food stamp payments went down for a few hours, it is obvious that a lot of food stamp recipients can very easily be pushed over the edge.  So what would happen if we have another “debt ceiling crisis” in Washington D.C. early next year and food stamp benefits are temporarily cut off completely?

Wherever “austerity” has been tried in Europe, it has resulted in protests and riots.  Could a similar thing happen in this country?

NBC News is reporting that ALL food stamp recipients are going to have their food stamp benefits reduced in November.  This is certainly not going to put those living in poverty in a good mood…

The cabal and the traitors working for/with them have completely destroyed this nation, whether it is fully recognized or not. There are many people who genuinely need the assistance, primarily due to either not being able to find a job, or due to severe illness, and now instead of helping those who need it, the demons walking-on-two-legs are going to take money that is there to help people and use it to continue the policy of destabilizing the world.

The stupid and ignorant masses have NO ONE to blame but themselves for ALLOWING this shit to happen to us all, and I am not just referring to food-benefits being cut; I am referring to ALL OF THIS SHIT that has been wrought against the world, from the poisoning of our food from GMO's to 911 to outrageously expensive health-care to on and on and on and on.

Yes, there are plenty of us stupid and ignorant masses and we have been lulled into consumerism, materialism, laziness and trashy entertainment of all kinds and we have not held on to the values in life that matter and are the real stuff in life to cling to.

However, what has been done started in the early 1970s when our industries and jobs and factories were outsourced to foreign countries for the international mafia banksters and industrialists to take advantage of sweetheart tax breaks and special perks given by ALL of our US congress members. That was the slow beginning of the end for all of us Americans and there was not a thing we could have done about it but take it.

The only thing we can do now is batten down the hatches, matey, there's a blow a comin'.
