1/ The hoops to get on food stamps make me want to kill myself. they want proof I'm depressed: would be some type of poetic irony.
2/ I have to get help before I can be fed. but I'm getting help because I couldn't feed myself. I don't want to fall through the cracks :(
3/ I mean I understand that people are afraid of food stamp abuse, but all it ends up doing is hurting the people who really need it.
4/ if I ever get back on my feet I'm going to devote a lot of time trying to disrupt this whole system of bullshit.
5/ I wonder if it's possible to make a profit while attempting to privatize welfare. I sure feel the need, and I know others do too.
6/ How much more efficient could this be if we took out beruocratic and politic Byzantine-isms? This is why I support basic income.
7/ But more than efficiency, I'm concerned with all the poor souls who don't have a support network like I do. How many people are starving?
8/ How many people are homeless because they don't have anybody to help them with this asinine paperwork?
9/ TurboTax exists because taxes suck ass to fill out. Why isn't there a service like that for all of the welfare social support nets?
10/ I feel like our society's priorities are perverted. More concerned with people using loopholes than making sure everybody is helped.
11/ lt's like fighting over who cut in line, not realizing the line is to the slaughter house. I'd love to see more mindfulness in this.
12/ I feel like I have to point out that there is an incentive and a profit to be made. A rising tide raises all boats.
13/ that just makes me wonder what incumbents are in this "Industry", who would we have to fight to make it happen? Why hasn't it happened?
14/ We live in a world where: to apply to even Walmart you have to use an online form. Yet we balk when somebody gets a cell phone.
15/ F_ck that noise. #BecauseF_ckPovertyWell at least I might have food stamps for a month. Please sir may I have some more?
16/ I feel bad for the people who are working in this industry. I would die a little every day, trying to help but feeling helpless.
17/ and I have the highest gratitude for those who struggle with it. Thank you.
