EBT systems may be down nationwide


Last edited Sat Oct 12, 2013, 01:52 PM USA/ET - Edit history (1)

NBC10 has received dozens of calls from both customers and store owners that access cards are not working.

But the problem, it seems is not only in Philadelphia. Customers all over the country have taken to Twitter to vent their frustrations with the sytem.

6. Ya think it's a repubic plot?

I have been suspecting they are the ones jamming healthcare.gov with denial of service hacks.
I have heard states with Democratic governors are having no problem accessing the site.
....and now the EBT system is having problems? Surprise, surprise.
Gracias Obama.

No lobster tonight for the welfare queens.

Just wait until the same people working for EBT are in control of health care. This is what happens DUmmies when government provides for you.

 ::) And now the Obamacare debacle is being blamed on Republicans? Good night, these DUmmies are soooo stoopid. I'm not talking dumb, I'm talking Amber stupid here.

a hacker attack is easy to detect, and a denial of service attack is old tech and way easy to diagnose. So why then is the admin, blaming computer glitches and not hackers?
I know this is obvious for my fellow Cavers, but I'm spelling it out for DUmmy lurkers. They need the extra help.

Watch out!!! The pavement apes are gonna start rioting soon they don't get their welfare. At least the fat ones can survive for a month... and might find their health improving once they drop 150 lbs.   :fuelfire: :fuelfire:

In other news, Walmart same store sales dropped 50 percent. Walmart officials declined to explain why.

Right.  The party that can't find it's ass with both hands, GPS coordinates and a "How-to" video is masterminding a shut-down of EBT cards?

I just stopped by the local 7/11 to fill up some water bottles and the clerk was putting a "EBT doesn't work" sign in the window while I was there.

Just got back from my favorite burrito joint and there is a no EBT cards today sign. Since when the **** does food stamps work at a restaurant?
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

First hefcare.gov and now the EBT system.  This just hasn't been a good month for Obama's base.

50 cents on the dollar, Jukin... 25 cents on the dollar if it is a high end place (clean dishes).  Always some illegals willing to give a brother illegal a hot burrito for the right price.   :fuelfire: :fuelfire:

Just so the dummies know... I have zero sympathy for them. None. Nada.  <obumbles voice> Let me be clear!!!! <perky voice> I do have sympathy for the folks that have lost their jobs thanks to the wunnerful obumbles economy that the last administration handed him. Oh wait, it is obumbles second term.

My bad.

The DUmmies act as if people will starve to death if they can't buy groceries for a day or two. It may be inconvenient, it may be a pain in the ass, but they will live. My whole adult life I always made sure there was always food in the house just in case something came up and we couldn't buy groceries. If I can be prepared so can anyone. You may not everything you want but at least you can get by if you prepare.

And yet, these people want the government to run the healthcare system.  They just don't get it.

Did without power for 3 weeks back in 89, ate damn good for about a week because I was trying to eat up what was going to go bad.

I had a welder/generater but loaned it out to a couple of friends that had more use for it and more to lose than I.

The dummies do not realize that what they are is basically slaves, much like the blacks were back in the 1800's. The only thing that has changed is the master. Every so often their masters come out and tell them to step and fetch it.... and they willingly do.  A gilded cage is still a cage.

You hit the nail right on the head, DD. Like I said, what the dummies do not realize is that they are basically federal government slaves. What their imperial master wants, their imperial master will get. And they call us fascists.
