What talks on an iPhone, wears a diamond ring and gold and diamond bracelet and drives a Yukon?
The woman in front of me tonight at Publix who paid for her groceries with a food stamp card.

But she needs those things so che can work for her Pimp, but she needs the food stamps to pay for stuff for her 8 kids all with different baby daddies!
You know, I try not to get upset, because I'm a firm believer in helping my fellow man. That said, I work hard for the things I buy...but affording an iPhone doesn't mean I can live downtown in the West Village and pay 2k a month for a studio. But it irks me to no end that the only neighborhood I can afford to live in in Manhattan is the one in which everyone but me at the grocery store has a New York Benefits card.
