Willie Stephens+FollowI was buying clearance ground beef, while the guy on EBT ahead of me bought steak and lobster.I work 50 hours a week and scour the discount bin for expiring meat to save money. The guy in front of me, wearing brand new Jordans, threw two lobsters and filets on the belt. At checkout? He pulled out his EBT card. I'm the taxpayer funding his lobster dinner while my kids eat spaghetti tonight. Is this fair? #WelfareAbuse #EBT #Taxpayers #Inequality4069Share
kedwards+Follow15 Non-English Speakers Added to My Kid's Class. Education is Dead.My daughter's public school class filled up with 15 new, Spanish-speaking kids in two weeks. The teacher is spending half the day translating and managing basic communication. My daughter's (and other local students') learning has completely stalled. I pay huge property taxes for quality education, not to fund a runaway migrant crisis. #EducationCrisis #ImmigrationImpact #PublicSchools #Taxpayers7036Share
Scott Garcia+FollowWe sent billions overseas yesterday, but my son's school can't afford heat. I saw on the news that Congress approved another massive foreign aid package. Then I got an email from the school saying they can't fix the broken heating system due to "budget cuts," so kids have to wear coats in class. It's infuriating. Our bridges are crumbling, vets are homeless, and schools are molding. Why do our taxes prioritize other countries' borders over our own backyard? #AmericaFirst #Taxpayers #Infrastructure #GovernmentSpending #Schools20Share
Sonya Jackson+FollowOur community center is now a migrant shelter. Where are our kids supposed to go?The mayor says we are a "Sanctuary City" and should welcome everyone. I get it. But now the gym where my kids played basketball is commandeered, and all after-school programs are canceled. We pay high property taxes only to lose access to our own facilities. Helping others is fine, but why does it have to come at the expense of local residents? #ImmigrantCrisis #SanctuaryCity #Taxpayers #LocalPolitics #CommunityFirst22Share
