That pisses me off to no end right there. I know for a fact that if you try to apply for food stamps, you are turned down if your car is worth more than $1000. My aunt got turned down for them b/c she had to buy a new car. Even then it wasnt a brand new car, but her old one was no longer able to be repaired and she got a used car that had problems on its own, but it was a newer car and still had a higher value on it and she was turned down. She is working two jobs and going to college and has 2 kids to take care of. She has a deadbeat exhusband that was able to get out of paying any kind of alimony or child support due to mental illness causing him to be disable and unable to work. She does get a social security check for her kids in the amount of $75 a month, which doesnt even pay her electric bill. How fair is it that someone who is trying  but just needs a little extra help cant get any help simply b/c she needed a reliable car to get her too and from work. And for the record her car is a 96 cavalier that she bought in 99.


i don't know how it works where you are from, but here we still got our food stamps (card) with no changes and we HAD to but a 2000 auto for about $16kthe only killing us on food stamps is that jackie had to get a job to pay for our rent.
