Michigan lottery winner still on food stamps.

Associated Press- A man who won $2 million on a Michigan lottery show has told a TV station that he still uses food stamps. Leroy Fick of Bay County admitted he still swipes the electronic card at stores, nearly a year after winning a jackpot on "Make Me Rich!" He told WNEM-TV in Saginaw that more than half the prize went to taxes. Fick says the Department of Human Services told him he could continue to use the card, which is paid with tax dollars. He told WNEM: "If you're going to ... try to make me feel bad, you aren't going to do it." The TV station says people have seen Fick driving a new Audi convertible. Messages seeking comment were left with his attorney and the state today.

What's the big deal here? So the guy won $2 mill and he's still on food stamps, so what. Have you seen how expensive food is lately? It's fucking ridiculous. Lays chips used to cost $2.99 for a bag, and then all of a sudden in the last few months, that same bag now costs $3.99. Where the hell does Lays get off jumping a whole dollar like that? That's like a 300% increase, or something. I'm not that good at math, so I'm not exactly sure, but it's a lot And gas for that convertible Audi is not going to get any cheaper. Leroy will be lucky if he has any money left at all by the end of the year, and then he would just have to go through the whole process of applying for food stamps again, which would be a big hassle and a waste of time.
