EBT Card Outage! 12 Days of No Food Stamps and Counting U.S. Nationwide Riots?

“EBT CARD OUTAGE! 
12 Days of No Food Stamps & Counting. U.S. Nationwide Riots?”
by IWB
 
“The video provides a glimpse of what could happen if a widespread glitch affects EBT cards nationwide.
 
Back in 2013, several Walmart stores suffered looting and “mini-riots” following an EBT card shutoff, which was caused after a routine check by vendor Xerox Corp. resulted in a system failure. Managers were forced to close a Walmart in Philadelphia, Mississippi when people reacted to the failure by staging a “mini-riot.” Shoppers also attempted to loot hundreds of dollars worth of groceries at Walmart stores in Springhill and Mansfield, Louisiana after the glitch temporarily allowed them to make unlimited purchases on their EBT cards.
 
According to USDA estimates, food stamp participation increased from 17 million users in 2000 to nearly 47 million in 2014, although the number of Americans using EBT cards has declined by around 1.5 million since 2012. “While we understand that Electronic Benefits Transfer cards, unemployment and other social support mechanisms are necessary for those who may have temporarily come upon hard times in an economic environment wrought with fraud and machinations that have left hard working Americans in dire straits, the fact is that millions upon millions of people feel entitled to the benefits they receive from the taxpayer and have made sitting on the couch, smoking weed, and getting paid a career
 
Widespread reports continue to pour in from all over the nation of “glitches” with the food stamp system. It is eight days into the month and large numbers of people still have not received their benefits, and in other instances it is being reported that EBT cards are simply not working correctly. So what in the world is going on here? On downdetector.com there are scores of reports of problems with the EBT system from people all over the nation. Could this simply be another example of government incompetence, or is something else at work here? In Venezuela extremely long food lines are a daily reality for much of the population right now. But someday will there be a major crisis that will cause food stamp benefits to be cut off either permanently or for an extended period of time.”

12 days is a very long time to fix a “computer glitch”. This is no “glitch” at all…

      I live in AZ and I’ve witnessed people using their food dept cards. What a load of crap!

      • Morgana Le Fay

        I have an EBT card and my benefits arrived on time, although I haven’t attempted to use it this month yet. Based on what I’ve read, it’s only happening for some people. Another possibility is that they may have moved the date forward that some people receive their benefits. This happened to me a few months ago; normally I would receive my benefits on the first of the month, but I received a letter stating that going forward I would receive them on the ninth instead. Perhaps this happened to some of the people that are having trouble, and they didn’t get the memo.

      How about THIS– Get a job, quit boozing, gettin’ high, drug dealing, gang banging, illegitimate baby making, phony disability claiming, and being a parasite on the taxpayers and get out there and justify your sorry existence. Thank Lyndon Johnson who when he signed the Great Society Program (Welfare) into law, turned to his staff and said “We’ll have these ni77ers voting Democrat for decades.” HE WAS RIGHT !!

      • Morgana Le Fay

        Not everyone receiving food stamps fits the description you listed above—in fact, most don’t. Many DO work, but because they aren’t paid a living wage or the company they work for won’t give them enough hours they end up on food stamps out of necessity. In many other cases there are no jobs to be found in some areas of the country in this cesspool economy. Hopefully you’re not judged nearly as harsh should you ever end up needing assistance.

        • Morgana Le Fay

          Besides, a$$-hats like you gripe and gripe about welfare for the impoverished, but rarely a peep when it comes to corporate welfare, tax-breaks for the wealthy, or the massive amounts of money going toward the military budget.

            You sound like a whiner to me. I got divorced and custody of my son in 2004 when he was 14, I also have my own business since 99. I got him through middle and high school andiIn 2008 he started college. I have pulled my home out of foreclosure 5+ times, got him through college, kept my business going, had my power, water and garbage service cut off and have managed to get him through school, downgraded a lot of things and never not once took a dime from the Govt. How big is your flatscreen TV Morgana? There were many nights I ate white rice and brown gravy. You babble corporate welfare while bragging about the on time service of “Your Welfare”. Your sad story is falling on deaf ears Honey. :cry:

        • holeshot

          You mean like the people who use their EBT Cards to load up on steaks and lobsters and then take them out on the street to sell for drug and booze money, or the generations of the same families who make a career out of welfare and foodstamps because it beats working.Some people truly need the help, but a vast majority are just parasites, empowered and enslaved by the Democrats for votes.

        • nobody

          Don’t worry about the trolls, Morgana. (although I admire you sticking up for your belief)

          My daughter is supposed to get food stamps, and from what I know she only got them for like 2 months, which the second month was a reduced amount. I have to catch up with her
          on what’s currently going on.

          Also, after I lost my job some years ago, we had to utilized them. It is humiliating, after supporting my family for more than 25 years, plus having to deal with people that seem to think everyone on them is ripping off taxpayers. Some probably are, which is sad because people shouldn’t have to worry where their next meal is coming from. I was a homless teenager for awhile, so I tend to understand desparation and poverty very well.

          If anyone wants to be mad about ‘welfare’, the corporate welfare is much, much worse.
          Throw in the added corruption, greed, and lies and before you know it you’ll not be so concerned about needy 99%ers. If not, you’re beyond help. I am sorry that you lack the brain capacity to comprehend our point(s).

      There is a VERY BAD definition of entitlements as regards SOCIAL SECURITY and MEDICARE.

      Social Security and Medicare are social programs based on MONEY LENT to the Government by employees through monthly DEDUCTIONS from their wages. The Government OWES this money to the retired people. Only WELFARE, FOOD STAMPS are entitlements. Only bloggers embedded with the government will mislead the public in calling Social Security and Medicare as entitlements. These are lies meant to imply that the Government do not owe retirees the retirement benefits already shortened by the Government using actuarial fraudulent calculations.
      So cut the crap with Social Security and Medicare entitlements, they are retirement benefits OWED to these people from the money lent to the Government during DECADES of work and NOT ENTITLEMENTS.

      • Morgana Le Fay

        A very true and highly overlooked fact.

      • Sean

        SOCIAL SECURITY is Paid by the EMPLOYEE and MATCHED by the EMPLOYER Each Week..its DOUBLE

        The problem is, Social Security is said too have been Incorporated in Delaware in 1989 and the 2.5 Trillion Surplus is Missing, so if you get a check and it says Entitlement, then someone Stole all the Money

        my wife just last week applied for Social Security and their were people in their Crying, because they were DENIED what they contributed over their life of working for PLUS paid by the EMPLOYER

        my wife was given 200.00 less a Month, they said she could take them too court, knowing it takes 2 years or more too go too court or take what they give, 200.00 a Month LESS

      • Just me

        Idiot – Social Security and Medicare are NOT loans. They are TAXES taken from working folks to subsidize those who can not or will not work.

      They said on the news that 3,600 Ga families lost their benefite because they have expired aka stayed on them too long and out of those 5 found a job. If you are able bodied you must submit proof you have been looking for work.

      Q: How do you confuse a Lib/Dem?
      A: Hide his foodstamps under his workboots!
      :grin:

      Okay.. I am from Pa and have been to both the grocery store and Walmart over the last few days. I specifically asked about this issue because I read about it days ago. The women in both places ringing us up told us there have been no problems that they had heard of.
      I don’t know where this news is coming from, but this is the third place I have read about these claims and they are either right out lies, or it sure isn’t happening here.

      These low lifes who have ETB cards should all get a job like becoming traffic wardens and other little Hilers that work as brown coats for the state to enforce more dreamed up law on the general public.

      I mean if you give them $100 then $70 comes back in taxes of one sort or another anyway and rents are so cheap these days because the government is insisting on building more homes that we can all afford to buy one and still have spare change from a million.

      The game is getting to the stage where only the greedy and i-dots still want to play with all thanks to the bankers and politicians that are on the take.

      Just think they are giving people there own taxes back, how shamefull

    • Eggzactly

      I Hope they all get cut off and they can go buy their own damn food like I have for over 50+ years now. :wink:
