SALT LAKE CITY -- Emily Scott filed for food stamps two weeks ago. This month, the Olympic short-track speedskating hopeful's monthly stipend was cut from $1,950 to $600.
Though she shares an apartment with a roommate and has a part-time job at a surgical supply factory, Scott's expenses come in way above her stipend. Scott, 24, has no idea how she is going to make ends meet. She trains six days a week, about eight hours a day. The Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, are seven months away.
Scott grew tearful as she discussed her food stamps application. "The last thing you want to be worried about in a year like this is being able to pay your rent and eat, and you want to eat healthy," she said at lunch as she twirled a spoon in a bowl of soup. "That was pretty hard. ... But I'm not the only one suffering."

Thanks Obama.
PS if you read into the story it plays into all the mizzou stereotypes.
I'm betting she is seriously DTF

I would normally say 3-4 but in the sack a speed skaters sheer athletic ability, stamina, strength, power, and glide raise her to a 7.

If she can't live on $2,000 per month with a roommate, she's a high maintenance brat who should maybe, oh I don't know, get a fricking part time job?
