    My cousin works at an abbatoir that's maybe a 10 minute drive from my house. I get it wholesale and with employee discounts.

    I question the relevance of my diet though. Seriously if you're paying $10 for a meal when you don't have $10 to pay for a meal and you don't have to pay $10 for a meal you're very silly.

    A typical meal in our economy is $10. $550 is not enough for 1 person.
    $10 a meal? If you eat fast food, or eat huge like most people. You can eat decent, healthy meal to $2-$3. $4-$6 is probably a better average.

    Its interesting that people only see what they want to see.

    "I have had no trouble finding work during the Obama presidency in not just one but two states after moving"

    He found jobs in 2 states AFTER moving. Not one before and then one after.

    Not dumping one you I just find it curious that people tend to see and interpret things they way they think they understand them. We are all guilty of it myself included. I often have to read things a coupel of times to get the blinder dust out of my eyes so I see it for what it is and not what I wanted it to be.

    Just an observation.

    Social Security is still a "federal" program.

    I went on a $2/meal diet once upon a time, because I was unsure how a big purchase I'd done would affect my finances. In 2 months, I went from 190 lbs to 160 lbs. For a 6'5" guy, that was seriously unhealthy.
    'Twas a cutlass swipe or an ounce of lead
    Or a yawing hole in a battered head
    And the scuppers clogged with rotting red
    And there they lay I damn me eyes
    All lookouts clapped on Paradise
    All souls bound just contrarywise, yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!

    LOL no, 4 kids and then my fiancee and myself. But to add to what you said, three of the kids are mine. I am (was) a single white male and have had custody of all three of my daughters for the past 13 years. At one point in my life I was strugling so I went to try to get help; they laughed me out of the building; true story. Obviously I wasn't holding my mouth right

    Also, since I really haven't added anything to the topic of the thread I guess I should. Don't we see these pop during every election?

    Amen, to get the unbiased story from the 3 major cable news channels in the us you have to see the same story on all 3 and then filter out all the bias bullshit to get to the real kernel of truth in the story. Too much work BBC new is better.

    When me and the wife were working, and with three boys, we didn't qualify. With just one of us working we qualify for a little, like eighty bucks, which does help. However, the big help is medical coverage for the kids. That saves us a couple hundred a month and the care is so much better than when they were on my or the wife's policy.

    STOP EATING OUT!! Jesus. I live in Canada and buy my groceries in the States because it is cheaper and I still don't even come close to needing $550 a month on food. $10 a meal are you serious lol. Learn how to cook or accept your stupidity. One person can survive with $150 a month on food easy. My god stop eating fast food every night.

    You gotta tell me robin, you dont think its unfair that people get $5 a head (family like yours and his, kids dont get you the full $6) and your getting $80 when your paying for it?

    The key is to keep them from ever achieving success, a decent standard of living does just that. You have 43 presidential democratic votes if they live to be 70. There is no way for the democratic party to lose at this point with the overpopulation of immigrants now in the united states. 70% voted democrat and the numbers are only increasing. Sore loser or not this country is destined for bankruptcy due to the idiotic philosophy that higher taxes = higher returns. Works on paper but not in reality.
