US Financial Industry to Replace Dollar with Food Stamps



"While the dollar's future is glum, the food stamp is on its ascendency," said Melanie Carnegie, a senior financial analyst at the non-partisan Cloward-Piven Strategy Institute in Washington, DC. "We at Cloward-Piven are actively working with big corporations, such as J.P. Morgan and Xerox, to get them into Food Stamp distribution programs. We also assist them in lobbying Washington politicians to qualify all citizens for food stamps as a replacement for dollars in terms of purchases and even savings."
The change is obvious: once relegated to the poor and stigmatized, the Food Stamp is not just becoming more accepted, it is looking very lucrative for many US businesses struggling with a slow recovery and a large pool of potential customers sidelined from the market by unemployment.
Carnegie added that this flexibility also allows the White House to redirect funds more equitably than private bank accounts and personal finances. She envisions a time when every U.S. citizens will only need one EBT card instead of multiple accounts.
"The credit card will soon also go the way of the dollar," Carnegie noted. "Poor citizens notoriously have difficulty getting credit or managing their debt. But the EBT program allows the government to assist them in managing their finances so that they will always have enough to eat."
Some speculate that the EBT card must also include specifications for purchases, such as quotas of certain products that must be acquired. This will help poor families, who typically have dietary management issues, to make good food choices.
Will the dollar be missed? Many American businesses seem to be pragmatic enough to overcome their sentimental attachment to the dollar in favor of something more profitable.
"Our nation is moving in a new direction and there's no way back," Carnegie said. "Big corporations understand that and are willing to assist the government by providing the technological know-how to make this work."
"Corporate executives want to get in on the top floor of this program to lock in their positions. It is going to happen, and now is the time to act," she added optimistically.





Thank Lenin most of us on The Cube already have our Obamacards™! All we need to do is walk in and flash it, and instant food stamps!






Commissar Wahoo
What's even nicer is that most states are issuing EBT cards, or Electronic Benefit Transfer cards that are used just like a debit card, and the comrade's monthly beet and vodka stipend is automatically transferred to the tovarish's account. There is no end to the things a creative comrade can purchase with such a card and there is no filthy capitalist currency to handle either!

“Free Ride”
Unemployment is high, job seeking is low
And you're confused on which way to go

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Come on and take a free ride
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Come on and take a free ride
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

He said the food stamps industry is "encouraging more people to sign up and use your money" and noted J.P. Morgan makes as much as $2.20 per person, per month for each EBT participant in some states."As food stamp rolls expand, so do corporate profits," Schweizer said.
Enlisted by class war, these corporations will be turned on by the very demagogues they are partnered with, accused of theft and corruption; demonized and destroyed. When you drink with the devil you get a comfortable chair in hell - until the devil gets tired of you.






Did you have a hand in this logo design?


BTW, the Wash Times post has a few good comments, and I'd like to post one here:
Food Stamps - the new unearned money. The only way you can get some is by not earning it.
Remember Obama complained that the US Constitution only has negative rights and no positive rights?
In this sense, food stamps are to the dollar what positive rights are to negative rights.


Truly, we are approaching a Socialist paradise here.....


I just wonder how long it will take some 'genius' to figure that they should start using the same paper as they do for U.S. currency. Nahhh, who cares.
