On Young, Privileged, and Applying for Food Stamps

I'm back in college and in my 40's. W/O food stamps I would not survive, but my moral barrier to stealing food from mega huge corporations, crumpled years ago. Everytime I have gone into supermarket and eaten something and then left sans payment is, for me, and act of civil disobedience. I encourage this sort of civil disobedience since hunger, a medical condition, has been known to kill people - grounds for an exigent circumstances defense if ever there was one. Just don't remove anything from the store unless it is in your belly...... If you need SNAP get SNAP...if you need TP learn to pick TP locks....
