Pet Food Stamps are now a Thing?!

So who’s ready for more government handouts? The way this program is going, it wouldn’t be a surprise to us if there was a new version of Food Stamps on the way. The number of people in America on Food Stamps is now at an all-time high, but it’s not enough for this new nonprofit that is trying to make sure the entire family is in on the program. The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) may be a federal program administered by the states, but many in New York feel as though it is not enough.

The new Pet Food Stamps program was created to “fill the void in the United States Food Stamp program which excludes the purchase of pet food and pet supplies. In these rough economic times, many pet owners are forced to abandon their beloved pet to the ASPCA, North Shore Animal League or other animal shelters due to the inability to pay for their basic food supply and care,” according to the organization’s website. The New York-based nonprofit helps pet owners who can’t support their animal friends.

But now the program is beginning to grow in popularity and the organization is getting several new requests from all over the country. The organization that was launched just 2 weeks ago has already received more than 12,000 requests for assistance. Those who qualify for this aid are then helped directly through an independent retailer, PetFoodDirect.

Of course there are 12,000 new applicants, there is essentially free money being handed out to pet owners! My question is: Where do you draw the line? Although this seems to not doing any harm because of the organization’s nonprofit standing, is this going to become a national craze that will create a demand big enough to be picked up by the government. With so many people now receiving government assistance, it doesn’t seem to be such a crazy idea.

These people are opposed to a private charity providing dog food to people in desperate times that might otherwise be forced to surrender their dog for euthanasia because they can't afford to feed it anymore. Why? Because it makes people lazy and dependent on government. Basically they are monsters, don't listen to them when they whine that they aren't opposed to charity just BIG GOVERNMENT.

In other news I would really like to see more terrible bible verses posted as being from the Koran, and nice Koran passages being attributed to the bible.

Also using nothing but Jesus' own words to get banned with. I really like seeing TPC ban Jesus. It's just so...telling.

They are opposed to this idea because other people (who?) might turn it into a government program. :psyduck:

Grey areas of morality don't exist for these people. When I was doing my first long-con gimmick before it got banned for posting that "I don't think Obama is literally Hitler" image macro, I suggested that morality isn't black and white, citing the use of nuclear weapons against the Japanese: I was then told that the bombings were a purely good act and that all of the civilians deserved to die because they allowed their government to be bad. So I presented the "is it wrong for a man to steal bread to feed his starving family" dilemma and nobody seemed to understand it because 'thou shalt not steal', instead railing on me for the idea that a man would allow himself to become starving because he was lazy and that I was such a lib that the only solution I could think of was stealing.

Anything that they think is justified is purestrain goodness.

I cannot even imagine how people who think like are able to function in society. What do they do when they encounter new or conflicting information?

If your boss is a "bad man" because he's a Muslim, what do these people do?

If you have no grey area for morality, then shouldn't America by and large be considered evil because of the immensely successful "Sin Industry"?

If there's only black and white morality, "Pure Good" and "Pure Evil", then doesn't your morality system require you to treat every sinner the same? How do you levy appropriate punishments on "evil"? :psyduck:

It's the same as when then bitch and moan about government health care wasting their tax dollars but then immediately complain when private insurances cover things they don't agree with.

They are against it because the headlines use the term "food stamps" and they just stop reading. That's it. If it were called "St.Francis Charity For the Animals" they'd be crowing about how wonderful the people behind it are.

Basically poor people aren't allowed to have things that provide them with enjoyment. The Tea Party's social model is Victorian-era England in more ways than one, on their radio show I heard them advocating making public assistance as unpleasant as possible so that you'd "want" to find work and get off of it.

haha this is in private messages because plenty of people see social networking as a means to meet people to gently caress.

People posting porn are doing it as an affront to your prudishness for cheap laughs.

People making 'hot girl' accounts and being immediately hit on by horny repressed men subverts all the moralizing behind this prudishness.

Actions and motivations can have many dimensions, but it's hard to see that when TV makes you see the world as 'two legs good, four legs bad'.
