I am afraid not only for myself but for my husband also who works but does not make enough to cover everything due to he has Rheumatoid Arthritis and Gout and one kidney and his doctor deemed him partly disabled due to flair ups but the way the system is he can't get it.
I'm afraid for everyone that needs the assistance but can't get it because they are cutting the food stamps because they are lowering the income rates (so if your a family of 5 but making 1000 but only bring home like 600 your now only getting 630) or making it so you have to work in which in certain states it was already required but they are making it tougher and it's right here at the Holidays making it even harder to afford anything.
Speaking of which they decided to cut food stamps for November and December so no one is getting them until the government reopens. This is going to hurt a lot of people, us included. A lot of people are going to suffer. Mom and Pop shops that relies on food stamps for purchases and all the other shops are going to loose money. A lot of people are going to be hurt by this.
There is so much going on right now and it's kind of scary. Minimum wage is still 7.25 in places and you can't afford anything. Some places rent is 1000-3000 making it so you never can save to get a house because your spending it all before you can save. You also got insurance for health and care along with a car payment and then you got credit cards and some people have student loans and then a family and it just isn't enough in to days age.
If you would like to help me out, buy something from my links! That will allow me to get things that I need.
