When you see your parents living in a different way you begin to associate that way of life with being normal and okay. They don't necessarily "teach" their kids that they too should be on welfare, but it is what they grew up around and some of these people have a sense of entitlement about it. There are plenty of welfare parents to try to teach their kids to work hard and get an education and build a good future for themselves, but there are also those that don't and their parents lead by example and the example is piss poor.

Obviously it is not something that every kid raised on welfare ends up doing, but there is a cycle that pulls certain people in and makes them want to be in/on the system instead of working.

i'm with you on the entitlement part. but there's a lot more reinforcing for that from more that just parents, television, politicians, media, etc.

Check for the 10 lb box of Quaker old fashioned oats. It's a great deal usually, around 10 to 15 bucks. Rice, dry beans, flour.. buy in bulk. Lots of old school penny pinching ideas out there. Buy whole chickens and cut them up yourself. Make stock from the carcass. Other things it makes sense to buy frozen. Frozen loose leaf spinach is 99 cents a pound, organic baby spinach in the produce section is gonna be about 4 bucks. It grows like a weed if you have a patch of dirt BTW. Seeds are also covered by the EBT program. She didn't do much trying it seems.

I think the purpose would be they only have $4 a day for food and they're too lazy to cook and freeze their own meals. Sly's meal plan was more nutritious and still within budget. I always look for the simplest way. I would've suggested mcdonalds but I don't think they sell cheeseburgers for $1 anymore.
