I am surrounded and eyewitnessed people in paterson nj getting foodstamps. Typically they have 3 or more children. they do not work or work part time paid by cash jobs and never report correct amount of tax. They were able to efford new tv and ipads for each of their toddlers. My husband and I work hard, paying taxes and we are cutting coupons and still not able to buy things my kids want in this christmas. They buy expensive groceries and don't mind the prices. We have to wait for sales, cut coupons and sometimes not buy the chicken that night because it is too expensive. What is wrong with this picture? They also have stomach bypass surgeries paid by medicare because they are overweight. What??? Working hard really doesn't pay.
