Let's all console each other. I get exactly $25 a month from SNAP. I think $15 comes from the federal government and $10 from my state. The reason there is variation from state to state is because states can choose if they even want to add to the federal amount and by how much. Like I said, seesaw, Florida is not the best place to be poor in.

I figure that $25/month comes out to $300/year. I look at that as expanding my annual budget by $300, which I can spend anyway I want. (I can't use the actual EBT card for wine. But I do buy about $25 worth of wine a month that I couldn't afford, unless I got that SNAP subsidy.) So I figure SNAP gets me my wine.

Cheers, everone! Happy hour is upon us.
