When SNAP Turns Into Side Cash

At a gas station, a guy I know quietly asked if I wanted to “cash out some EBT credits.” He said a lot of people do it—sell part of their monthly SNAP balance for cash and use the cash for cigarettes, alcohol, or bills. Meanwhile, a single mom I know barely has enough SNAP to feed her two kids. It’s upsetting to think a program meant for struggling families becomes a quick cash scheme for people who don’t even need it. #SNAP #EBTFraud #FinancialStruggles #FoodSecurity

When Rent Doubles, People Move Back Into Their Cars

There’s a middle-aged couple in our community who lived in a run-down one-bedroom apartment for $980 a month. Last month, the landlord raised it to $1,750. They couldn’t afford it, so they packed everything into their old SUV and started sleeping in the Walmart parking lot. “We’re not lazy,” they said. “We just got priced out.” The sad part? Their old unit is now rented to a short-term visitor—because, as their landlord said, “It pays better.” #HousingCrisis #RentTooHigh #Homelessness #CostOfLiving
