| #11 You can get large blocks of good cheese really cheap, no government required. This costs me seven dollars and lasts over a month. Course, I'm just putting it on my potatoes, etc., but you get the point. |

| #8 Well, if he's a _real_ artist he should be able to create work with a lot less infrastructure than a guy running a machine shop. He just needs to create some marketable art, and he's all set. |

| #6 bad, Chances are they're still on food stamps - and we eat wild Oklahoma pig and deer! Sure beats grocery store steak and twinkies. |

| #5 Nothing new. I remember, over 30 years ago, being in the check-out line with my generic bread, cereal, peanut butter, and a pound of ground beef, to be paid for with meager cash, while the person in front of me paid for good steak & twinkies with food stamps That's prolly why they were on food stamps... |

| #4 All that food stamp licking and handling causes ED and hair loss. If they only knew. |

| #3 healthier to just go get an Elk tag, a deer tag, and go Halibut fishing once a year. |

| #2 I heard on the radio recently that a new study announced that the cause of rising obesity in this country is not due to fast food joints or large portions. It is due to food stamps. More people getting more "free" food. |
