Our tax dollars for your baby formula?

Yesterday, it took the cashier on the line I was on, about 10 minutes to process WIC checks for the couple in front of me. I don't mind waiting so no biggie. Having a toddler has taught me patience like you wouldn't believe. While I stopped by daughter from trying to remove every packet up peanuts hanging to the left of us,  I oberserved the couple in front of me. Their son was so adorable...

The mother carried an authentic Gucci diaper bag and their son was in a $500 stroller. If a couple can afford an over $600 stroller and a $910 Gucci diaper bag why on earth are they benefiting from a state program meant for low-income mothers and their children? Judgement much? Yes and I don't care.

I'm tired of parents assing up money on what they want to buy so tax payers can contribute to the needs of their children. Frankly, I don't believe a person who cannot afford to provide for the basic needs of their children should have children. I especially don't believe parents capable of supporting their children with the money they bring into their household should be allowed to even apply for programs like WIC.

If you own a Gucci diaper bag and can't afford formula, sell that shit on Craigslist and use the money to provide for the basic needs of your children. I don't respect parents who prefer handouts from the state in lieu of being fiscally responsible for themselves and their children.

I don't have an issue with WIC when people truly need it but the Gucci carrying mama with the Bugaboo Frog needs to fall back. The end.
