You need more proof because I can go on and on with these or you can can just Google "trading foods stamps for cash", and sift through all of them yourself.

The Raptor is a $65k vehicle, 28" wheels with tires are $3,200. It is very unlikely that some one without a job and on food stamps would be able to afford it. Many ppl waste their hard earned money on stupid things, you're not paying for it so what's it to you.

Just because someone has a mod on their vehicle that you don't agree with or you consider a waste of money, doesn't mean that it was purchased with your tax dollars. Do you really think someone with a $65k Raptor is on food stamps? I highly doubt it.

Yeah its a shame someone would do that to a Raptor but its not your money why insult the guy? Everyone has diff taste, just because you don't like it doesn't mean you have to insult the guy and say things you don't know are true, ex saying this specific guy is on food stamps. Don't get me wrong it happens all the time and I can give examples for days of things I saw in back home in Chicago.
Just because he has big rims on a Raptor doesn't mean he is ghetto, prob some spoiled kid. I lived in a small town of 90k, lots of wealth and spoiled kids. I could drive by the local HS and count no less than 5 Raptors on 24"+ rims, all kids of doctors which are just spoiled brats. Hell I was at my local Cadillac Chev dealer 2 years ago getting my CTSv serviced, I was talking to my sales guy when in walks a man and 2 kids. He bought 3 zr1's, one for him one for his college grad and one for his 17yo son. First thing the kids ask is how big of rims can fit on it.
To each their own but no need to get "personal" especially when we know nothing about the owner. There is crap some of you guys do to your trucks that I think is stupid and tacky but I won't tell you that. Its your truck do what you want.
And what's with the politics? I didn't vote for the guy nor do I like him but I'm not going to wear blinders and blame everything on him, there are many to blame not just one guy.

I went through all your links, none were about food stamps being used to purchase rims directly. If someone chooses to go hungry and cash their food stamps then that's their own stupid decision.

Inebriated 4 ur safety
Spending YOUR hard earned money on stupid things is A LOT different than spending SOMEONE ELSE'S hard earned money on stupid things.
Here is how it works. People like the fruit cake in the video I posted earlier get cash money from his band gigs. It is cash money so he doesn't have to report it to the IRS therefore he has no job in their eyes. Drug dealers do the same ( http://www.kirotv.com/news/news/poli...ollecti/nWs7K/ ). As long as how you earn your money is cash and not reported to the IRS, then you have no job and are eligible to receive welfare even though you do have an income that you are just not reporting.
Also, why do you think most don't get married. The man can work and the woman can stay home with the kids not only collecting welfare because she is claiming she is single with no husband, but she also gets a home for less than $50 a month. All the while, the man is actually living there with them and the child support he pays actually goes back to himself. As long as they don't get married and the man claims he lives at another address then they can keep receiving aide. This is so common that even comedians have joked about it on national TV and has even been rapped about in songs.
Fraud is so rampant because there is really no one who is checking and once Obama opened up the flood gates with his last welfare stimulus act, it has gotten a lot worse. Even then, I doubt much would be done about it on the left. Why? Because keeping people down and reliant on the government are votes. Our own politicians have figured out how to bribe us with our own money giving people a sense of entitlement. Instead of giving people(especially minorities) reasons why they can succeed, they keep them down with excuses of why a certain race, religion, or class is keeping them down. Why do they do this? Because they know that if they give people a common enemy then they will forget about the real reason they are where they are at and vote for said left wing politician against this made up enemy that truly has nothing to do with the current state they are in. Some on the right are seen as evil even though they want to give those in poverty reasons why they can escape from it and give them a hand up instead of a hand out. Wake up and smell the cash cow. Why would a liberal politician want to disrupt such a vast group that overwhelmingly vote democrat when fixing the problem would more than likely mean less votes.

Also the video of the California surfer you posted was completely irrelevant to the original subject of the op's picture of the raptor with distasteful mods. You know nothing of the owner of that Raptor. Also you are just using this thread to vent your political views and about what's wrong with our government.

Oh man, I cannot let this go! The point here is that what ELSE could they have purchased (food, health care, housing, clothes for their kids) if they were not driving around on $6,000 worth of wheels and tires.

It's none of your business what he decides to spend his money on, you're not paying for it.
