    I got on food stamps when I was unemployed for a year, it was definitely a great help.

    That said, I would never want to have to do that again. Dealing with government workers is the absolute worst.

    I had to jump through hoops to get on food stamps and I had a kid..can't imagine what you have to do as a single male.

    Any single males that have been on FS?

    It used to be the come-up for men in college. By the time me and my boy had decided to do it, Michigan changed their FS laws so that single males were pretty much kicked off. My uncles lived off that ? back inna day though.

    the way y'all view social works programs in this country is really disturbing. worried about some poor people getting food stamps but have no issue with all the tax breaks for the already insanely rich, gtfoh

    I think people just choose to overlook the facts regarding social programs. It's easier to believe that we have a bunch of single mother welfare queens abusing the system, instead of addressing the issues that are driving everyday people and families to the welfare office.

    What blows my minds is the percentage of poor white trash that backs these tax breaks for the rich. Why, why, WHY would you ever be a Republican when you're dirt poor??

    Men can get on food stamps.

    The requirements for a single person with no dependents are much stricter though.

    Can single women get food stamps?

    I tried to get stamps when I was in college and they told me I made to much money. There's a cut off limit for single women without kids that's much lower than woman with children, I was working a part-time job paying about $6.25 an hour.

    Most people on food stamps are white. something like 80+% of black people live in the south. Just look at the food stamp breakdown by state and you can easily see that it's white people benefiting the most from that social service. Yet they complain about black people that use it

    I got on good stamps little over a year ago. ? was GOAT cause my job started like a week or two later. For 6 months food was plentiful. I sponsored cookouts and birthdays if need be. Money for good to burn.
