Um, Foodstamps?

I'm standing at the corner of State and De La Guerra in Santa Barbara and a gold-rimmed Mercedes slides up. Inside, the driver in a sharp blazer and dashing turtleneck leans to his window to ask:

""'Scuze me, can you tell me where the welfare office is?"

  1. THAT is priceless and typical. We've lost our house, struggle to pay our utilities, worry about where our families next meal will come from, all because of a medical hiccup, yet the state tells us we make too much money for food stamps. Great system we have.
