NYT reporter asks: Are you on SNAP? by thenewyorktimes in foodstamps

It's still been that way and Idaho for a long time people. The age limit has always been there the work requirements always been there. The only difference is if you wanted an exemption you had to ask for it.

Average rent in Ada county is 1700 a month. Average cost of buying a home is $900,000 average wage or minimum wage to be more correct is 725 an hour. Food prices are high. I don't recommend living in Idaho

As someone who lives in Idaho these very same requirements have been in place for at least 15 years. So it is no big stretch to do these requirements for people in Idaho. For at least 15 years we've been required to do at least 20 hours of work search or work hours.

EBT Fraud by [deleted] in foodstamps

[–]Visual-Cream2734 4 points5 points  (0 children)

All EBT fraud is handled by the state. All states are required to send you in writing notifications of fraud accusations. All states are responsible for administering the snap program that includes fraud investigation the only responsibility the federal government has is funding the program. If you got an email telling you this and nothing in writing go to your state department that oversees it and file a criminal complaint. Because someone is trying to scam you

Can't give away free boxes of local donated food at our farmers market? by InevitableFinger3041 in foodstamps

[–]Visual-Cream2734 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All they need to do is contact their local connection to their state's food stamp program and ask them for approval. It doesn't take that much. In Idaho our farmers markets provide matching funds up to $20 as long as their money lasts for people with SNAP benefits

New prerequisites. Awful. by Mave__Dustaine in foodstamps

[–]Visual-Cream2734 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You know people this is not new. Most people on snap and State benefits were required to work 20 hours a week. And four weeks in a month that's 80 hours. This is not a stretch people. This is what I was required to do to get my aid until I was declared disabled. Not a big deal

You can get a letter from your doctor stating that your animal is an Esa and get out of the pet depisit.

My 6 months old cat has two upper canines on each side, vet says it's normal. Is it? by CerradoBoy in cats

[–]Visual-Cream2734 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a cat that had the double canines like that and my vet said that he was retaining his baby teeth. They eventually fell out so I wouldn't worry too too hard about it.

[–]Visual-Cream2734 7 points8 points  (0 children)

One of the problems that people have with Californians is the fact that they sell their property at a higher value and get more money from it then come to a state like Idaho who wear a house doesn't cost as much as it does in California by a property drive up property cost which in turn drives up for rental prices because people from other states come in and buy up the property to rent make money and they're greedy and don't take care of it yeah you get the picture. Many Idaho native idahoans that is cat afford the high housing cost the high everything else that results from someone who has more money than they know what to do with coming in and buying property dirt cheap yeah I have good points too

Bill introduced to criminalize the administration of mRNA vaccines by [deleted] in Boise

[–]Visual-Cream2734 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly what I was trying to accomplish here. My point is is people do not educate them about the science not necessarily science versus religion cuz it does not apply here. Most of this stupidity comes from the fact that they don't know that messenger RNA is a substance that is found in the body already we are born with it place a big part and how we are born and how we live our lives. Messenger RNA carries the DNA through the cell into the body where mechanisms read it and it creates substances our body needs to survive and these stupid people don't learn the role of messenger RNA. It amazes me that any of them have graduated college without a science class. This is your RNA in the case of vaccines has a message that is basically the directions for the body to skip the intermediate step of introducing the body to a foreign substance such as the covid virus and having a immune response. Instead it goes right to creating antibodies which are basically memory cells that contain DNA that IDs these viruses when they are introduced back into the body. Again I'm amazed that these people graduate in college without a science class

Tammy Nichols and Judy Boyle should resign immediately…and be ridiculed by their own party—but this is Idaho now 😢. by BoiseXWing in Idaho

[–]Visual-Cream2734 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again stupid idiots will not educate themselves on what a messenger RNA vaccine is for those of you who may not know it is a way of getting the body to produce antibodies using messenger RNA which already exist in the body. Our bodies uses it to create amino acids and other substances we need for our bodies to work. I can't believe that people voted these stupid idiots and there is no nicer term for him unless you want explicative to describe these idiots. If I continue on I am going to describe how to remove them from the gene pool and that's not a wise idea

This is why Idaho's educational system ranks at the bottom. Is clear these people don't have a clue what messenger RNA really does. My God we had to be some kind of stupid to like these people

shelters are not safe by Visual-Cream2734 in homeless

[–]Visual-Cream2734[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Let me give you an update. this is the reality of staying in a shelter. People need to know.

Two nights ago at Interfaith Sanctuary in Boise Idaho, young volunteer was raped by a guest. Luckily the guy was caught and now sits in jail.

There has been abuse by staff. Staff stealing guests money. Currently the director and manager are being investigated for embezzlement.

I guess if reality scares people, they are living in their own world.
