OMG, never fear "La Chancla" is here! I'm laughing my ass off right now; Like a whole lot. Only a Hispanic child would know where I'm coming from with this. But feel free to watch the video if you're from a different ethnic background. LOL.
Ohhhh, the dreaded "Chancla" - that sandal that our mother's would threaten us with. And boy, did it work. I can't recall how many times our mother threatened us with it, but one thing is certain - we grew up dreaming about it. All she had to do was say the word, and my sister and I would run for our dear lives! No wonder we turned out to be great kids. **coughs**
The video will explain it all for you - it's a definite must-watch!
And you know I had to double check with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Factcheck.org websites to make sure that what I was posting, was in fact, true.
But yeah, as I've been saying all along, the same people who are voting for no government intervention are the same people who use more of it.
Seriously folks, we have swaths of counties surrounding our area that consist of nothing but beer-chugging, backyard partying, food stamp-whoring people who are voting against their own interests. Lol. It's almost too funny not to laugh.
The most recent Department of Agriculture report on the general characteristics of the SNAP program’s beneficiaries says that in the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, 2010:
- 47 percent of beneficiaries were children under age 18.
- 8 percent were age 60 or older.
- 41 percent lived in a household with earnings from a job — the so-called “working poor.”
- The average household received a monthly benefit of $287.
- 36 percent were white (non-Hispanic), 22 percent were African American (non-Hispanic) and 10 percent were Hispanic (Table A.21).
And you thought segregation was a thing of the past. Maybe you should think again. I found these demographics quiet astonishing, but it is what it is.
The other 3 cities after the jump...
