I agree. But, it's not totally dismal, deaf are getting jobs. You need to be in the right place and you need to have the right education.

That's is so cool.

Try using meetup.com. If you know or want to learn ASL, there are ASL meetups. There will probably be more hearing than deaf, but at least you'll have more in common with the people here. There are also other deaf meetups that don't require ASL.

The issue actually seems to be about how the food is portrayed. It seems the food is not considered authentic by name. A school cafeteria trying to make food more appealing by changing the name. I'm shocked! And, what exactly does the actress have to do with all this? I'm not sure, but I'm...

I'm not sure it's ever in their account. As I understand it, you get a credit card that you can use. Moreover, if they make it illegal to buy certain food then it is.. Illegal. The idea behind the law is that if you are buying lobster and prime rib you're not spending the money wisely. The...

They are not telling them how to spend their money. They are telling them how to spend tax payer money. I'm not sure about the meds. I would think that is paid for under a different plan like state health. Food stamps don't come from an insurance system.

Time to think about growing sustainable foods. The article states why the foods are being banned.
