Star Parker: ' Some Food Stamp Recipients Too Busy ‘Watching Porn' Instead of Finding Jobs

[MEDIATE] During her appearance on Fox & Friends Wednesday morning, Star Parker, Founder and President of Center for Urban Renewal and Education, said one of the issues with some people using the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is how they have very little incentive to work because they are too busy watching T.V. and pornography.

Parker said the shame of being on food stamps has been taken away since they have become "like an EBT swipe card, it’s a debit card" and so there is even less incentive to get off of it. She complimented President Donald Trump’s administration for telling SNAP recipients they have to find work within three months.

#4 the last sentence refers to a pending executive order that would cover about 700k of the 40M SNAP recipients,

that would require recipients in areas w below 7% unemployment to actively seek work or go thru training

#5 I continue to be amazed at how many food stamp recipients can somehow afford Cable TV subscriptions. It's all about the priorities.

I didn't mean deliver to the door. I meant pick their food pyramid of Wookie school dinner food up from where they used to shop.
