Re: NUTRITION ON WELFARE

I don't care what anyone has to say about this post and I am sure the clique

that is still left here will all attempt to gang up on me but I don't care

because I'm speaking the truth and not living in a fantasy world like some

fo you seem to be doing.

I read a post a while back where someone complained about what they

recieved in food stamps every month.I believe the person was a family of 4

and recieved about $300 a month.They were complaining about how hard it is

to feed a family of 4 on $75 a week.I have a suggestion on how to stretch

that out more.....Get rid of your internet service.Simple as that and it

will put about $10 more onto your table every week.I'm sure you also have

more wasteful entertainment expenses you can cut back on.Food stamps and

welfare are intended to ease the burden,Not to make you live on easy street

with no worries.

Sharon thanks for the mail but I would appreciate that you keep your messages to

the group and not in my mail.Show me the same respect that you and others ask

for please.Did not one member jump the gun in the group and order that I not

reply to them in mail? I respectfuly told that person that I would not do that

even though her threats of reporting me had no warrent since I did not mail her

in the first place and she just assumed I would.If mailing me is ok in your

eyes,Then would it be fine that I add you to messenger without your permission?

Not that it would make any difference because I never use yahoo messenger under

this name anyway and block anyone from adding me without permission to insure I

don't have to deal with the drama when I'm not up to hearing it. I don't think

it would be fair to add you without your say so and I would appreciate you also

respect my wishes. Well Thanks for the mail anyway.I hope life is treating you

well and hope your weight loss is also

working out for you if that is what you joined the group for.I see things my

way and you see them yours.I never put anyone down for recieving food stamps

anyway.I merely pointed out that if someones budget is so strapped that they

lack to have enough to spend on food that maybe they might want to reconsider if

having internet service is a necessity.If it offends you or any other then

reconsider if belonging to a group online is for you.People have different views

and they are not always the same as yours.

Take Care.

Sharon,

Thanks for your suggestion.

I have it under control. AKA " Bling " is welcome to his opinions..

But not at the expense of others. All new members are all ready moderated

and have been since the group started. If makes us think then it

isn't always a bad thing.. He knows I am fair and he knows what lines

not to cross.

HI Jermaine ,

I guess since the guestbook isn't open any longer you feel you needed to

bless us with your presence here on yahoo groups.

I don't even know who you are I was talking about blingbling being the

that is always bashing Steve on the guestbook. It has nothing to do with being

on food stamps. I didn't email you personally I email the site. I would never

email anyone personally. So if you don't like getting the emails in your inbox

then go to the site and read them. And please read them right.

I don't want to see anyone be bashed at all nor anyone do any bashing. this

sudden turn in the group because of one new member coming in and attacking

others will ruin the group. That is all it takes... just one person. I

have left two groups in the past month because one person was allowed to run

their mouth with little care of who the other members were, their feelings,

or even their right to their own opinion. It is one thing to have an

opinion, it is another to be a jerk when you state it.

If you can't say something nice or in a nice manner then don't say anything

at all. I guess people get great pleasure in finding a really nice group

where people actually get along and have respect for each other and they

come in and see how they can destroy it. Face it the world is a very harsh

place and I don't have much to do with it, so when I find a good spot I get

upset when someone thinks they can come in and destroy it. I really do not

want to see this group become like so many other groups online. If it does

then I will have no choice but to leave. I do not have a lot of online time

and I am real picky who my friends are in life and online.

Just my two cents.

For those who do not know it, many libraries offer free internet service, so

even the poor can avail themselves of it for free. At least that is true here

in the backwater of the world in many people's estimation, Mississippi, so one

assumes it is true in many other places. A number of people in the healthcare

field (housekeepers, nurses aides) receive or have received assistance. I asked

several at my place of work (a hospice) last night and one said. " I have

internet service (dialup) for $5.95 per month and use a computer overhauled and

given to me by a man at my church for my children. " She said that if she did

not have that, she would have little social outlet besides church. There are

people in my family who have this elitist attitude that only people who have

money deserve pleasure, and those who are poor should be miserable. It makes me

so sad.

I agree, Lindy. I've been on other groups where the good people got

fed up and slowly, quietly left until almost only the jerks were left.

Then everyone (who was left) started asking what happened. However,

before people started leaving, they did make comments about not liking

some invasive people in the group and some even said they were

thinking of leaving, so it shouldn't have been a surprise to the list

owners. No one made a slamming, loud exit and once it was seen that

many were gone and the change in the group, the group owners couldn't

get them back.

I hope we get to keep what we have and not let it get ruined. I don't

think me personally banning certain people from my e-mail is the

answer. I want to be able to read all posts and it's not just me (as

you and others have illustrated) who find some people disturbing.

I like having a " safe place to fall " and this group is one of them and I am

going to stay here and fight for it because I do believe that this is a

group worth fighting for I hope that you all do the same.

as for me and my internet, I spend a lot on it because I had an extra phone

line installed so that I can be on whenever I want and not tie up my

parent's line, which would not be fair. the router is in their house and

beams the signal out here to my little trailer.

A waste of money... well that could be, but one has to realize that in my

case I do not go to movies, out to eat, go shopping unless I truly need

something, go places just to " go " , etc. My expenses are very little... I am

not on public assistance at all, but I am not employed at the time either,

but I get along ok. I do not even rent movies, I did belong to netflix at

one point but chose to give that up. SO what I am saying here is that you

can't judge someone just because they have an internet connection does not

mean they are wasting money, maybe that is their main means of

entertainment!

Isn't freedom of choice wonderful? I say that we all stay united and not depart from the good and caring people on here; just because some need to vent "the uglies". Steve brought us together through his jorney, and now we are bonding. No one says w all have to bond with everyone. There is this really neat thing called a delete button for those with a bad case of the uglies. We are staying right? LeenaElaine wrote: I agree, Lindy.
