Unemployment is down, but why did America set a record 47.8 million on food stamps?
by moshe inin the usa a new record was set on food stamp enrollments, which seems ironic.
you would think as unemployment drops , food stamp usage would be dropping, too.
maybe those government unemployment numbers are fake numbers.

They have just introduced food stamps in the UK to replace crisis loans which were repayable but you could spend the money on what you wanted.
Food stamps are redeemable only in Asda (Walmart) and ony for food. (Not cigarettes or alcohol. Not sure about any other restrictions).
Food banks are the biggest growth industry in the UK next to our welfare costs.
Our government too keep saying unemployment is down but the welfare bill is rising. Only 13% of the bill is unemployment payments.
The cost of living is so high often a family with both parents working still need help towards rent and bills but the government do nothing to raise the minimum wage and vilify those who do qualify for help as lazy and scroungers.

Watchtower Society knows they are beat
by outsmartthesystem inin regard to the conti case......i have a new hypothesis.
i think they know they can't win this one.
but for the sake of damage control, they must litter the court with appeals and extensions.

Good for you saying something.
When the Panorama programme on paedophilia amongst JWs was shown I didn't believe a single bad word that was said about the society and although had always enjoyed and trusted Panorama prior to this episode I stopped watching it I was so disgusted with them.
Nothing in that programme made me question the religion I was in and the only difference it made was to keep a close eye on my girls around the brothers.
Once out I revisited that programme and watched it again knowing that what was said was the truth. It helped in my escape and in the same way anything said now to someone still in may appear to have fallen on deaf ears I know once some-thing like that is in your head, it doesn't leave.
She may do nothing now but if something else crops up she may decide to research it then and if you hadn't said anything she wouldn't know where to even start.
You did a good job.

Never put me in the same room as a politician and an axe. I know exactly where I would put it.

Thanks to this series being suggested on another thread I am hooked on Walking Dead.
I have found a violent streak in me I never knew existed before and am delighted when a baddie "gets it"!

*** km 2/94 p. 6 par. 19 How Beneficial to Recount What Jehovah Has Done! ***
19 See the Opportunities Open to You: As you read and discuss Jehovah’s Witnesses—Proclaimers of God’s Kingdom, you will find unfolding to your view the grand fulfillment of Isaiah 60:22The little one himself will become a thousand, and the small one a mighty nation. I myself, Jehovah, shall speed it up in its own time.”
The book states on page 519: “Fulfillment of the promise that ‘the little one would become a thousand’ has surely come to pass, and abundantly so! In each of more than 50 lands where there was not even a ‘little one’—where there were none of Jehovah’s Witnesses back in 1919, where they had done no preaching at all—there are today more than a thousand praisers of Jehovah. In some of these lands, there are now tens of thousands, yes, even more than a hundred thousand, of Jehovah’s Witnesses who are zealous proclaimers of the Kingdom of God! Worldwide, Jehovah’s Witnesses have become ‘a mighty nation
Best I could find. There was another one in Ezekiel, something about sticks but it really was like clutching at straws.
