As I scrolled through my Facebook memories, I discovered the following artwork, which I originally shared to my wall in October of 2012, in my post, “The False Dichotomy Wins Again!,” and decidedly re-shared it, along with a new commentary…
My Original Commentary: The false dichotomy wins again!
My New Commentary: Always relevant, sadly…

Food Stamp Craze: U.S. Spends $3.6 Billion to Give $70 Billion in Benefits:
https://www.judicialwatch.org/blog/2016/10/food-stamp-craze-u-s-spends-3-6-billion-give-70-billion-benefits/
Not only does the government spend a breathtaking $70 billion a year to give a record number of people food stamps, it wastes billions more to administer the bloated welfare program. Some states spend a lot more than others to distribute the free food vouchers and the discrepancies are downright outrageous. The government dedicates $3.6 billion annually just to administer food stamps (renamed Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program—SNAP to eliminate stigma), according to a federal audit that includes mind-boggling figures.
For instance, California, the state with by far the largest food-stamp roll, spends a lot more than the national average to execute the federal nutrition program. The Golden State doles out an average of $34.06 a month for each of its 2 million food stamp cases while other states, like Ohio, spend only $9.55. Some California counties are off the charts with administration costs. For instance, San Francisco County spends a whopping $73 a month administering each food stamp case. To put this in perspective, New York City spends $23 per case. The huge gap suggests “possible waste and operational inefficiencies,” according to the audit conducted.
My Commentary: The biggest food stamp fraudsters? Why, the very States who administer the program, of course! Are you surprised? I’m not… I’ve been saying this for years about ALL government-operated “assistance” programs. I don’t blame y’all for not understanding. I was only made fully-aware by my first-hand experience with the systemic corruption inherent to these government programs, as a youth, living with my family in the NYC shelter system for almost four years, starting at age twelve … But, what do I know? I’m a “naive, utopian” Voluntaryist, who foolishly believes that humanity can get along much better without sociopathic criminals ruling over us, like masters, while systematically running society into the ground… *sigh* Hopelessly pathetic, aren’t I?
This article illustrates how overbloated-bureaucracies operating in some of the country’s biggest cities are making HELLA cash in their (mis) “management” 😉 of the SNAP program – and, parasitically do so at the financial hardship of those they purport to “serve.” Also, for anyone looking at the bigger picture, this article is also an inadvertent indictment against the so-called “economic recovery” that so many head-in-the-sand dupes keep babbling about, since their have been a record number of Americans on food stamps, for years, now!

South Florida traffic
Report: South Florida Officials to Make Drivers ‘Suffer’:
http://www.local10.com/news/report-s-fla-officials-to-make-drivers-suffer
(Jeff Tavss) If getting stuck in South Florida traffic doesn’t make your blood boil, learning that public officials are behind it all will do the trick.
The Sun-Sentinel reports that officials are hoping that traffic becomes so bad that commuters will eventually ditch their cars to walk, ride a bus or take a train to wherever they need to go.
And the report says the officials are completely aware of driver frustration.
“Until you make it so painful that people want to come out of their cars, they’re not going to come out of their cars,” the newspaper says Anne Castro, chair of the Broward County Planning Council, said during a meeting last year. “We’re going to make them suffer first, and then we’re going to figure out ways to move them after that because they’re going to scream at us to help them move.”
My Commentary: But… MUH Roadssss. 😥

Donna Brazile holds up her CNN DNC pass
CNN Cuts Ties with Donna Brazile After Hacked Emails Show She Gave Clinton Campaign Debate Questions:
https://www.yahoo.com/news/cnn-cuts-ties-with-donna-brazile-after-hacked-emails-suggest-she-gave-clinton-campaign-debate-questions-183855590.html
(Dylan Stableford) CNN quietly cut ties with Donna Brazile, the acting Democratic National Committee chair and a longtime contributor on the cable news network, after hacked emails published by WikiLeaks revealed that she had provided questions to the Hillary Clinton campaign in advance of a town hall and debate hosted by CNN during the Democratic primary.
According to a spokeswoman for the network, CNN accepted Brazile’s resignation on Oct. 14.
The emails showed that Brazile — whose role as a CNN contributor was suspended in July after she took over for departing DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz — shared with the Clinton campaign a question that would be posed to Clinton before the CNN Democratic Debate in Flint, Mich., in March, and another before a CNN town hall in Columbus, Ohio, a week later.
My Commentary: Who’s trying to effect the outcome of the elections? “The Russians! The Russians!” LOL!
