Since when???? People are Hurting for food. Prices have gone up over 100% in many areas. How about it's not this at all. This is BS and Isn't what is occurring in Michigan. How about all the ILLEGAL immigrants??????? Yeah, Getting Free Healthcare and Food and housing and now even divers licenses!!! like SMFH .

I shop for my disabled brother, use his card to buy his groceries for him. Yeah, I kind of feel embarrassed using it, cause Im sure people think its for me. I usually go to store for him after work, therefore I have my nursing uniform on.. But, whatever .. I know different.
