KravtZThat guy is 100% right. The Dems keep making it so EBT cardholders can purchase whatever the hell they want aka steak or booze with them. It should be for basic food. Those people are leeches off the system. They DID NOT deserve that steak at all.
PoLaRpEaKThis thread is so cryptic I have no idea what the hell you guys are referring too. Maybe I'm just old.

nocturnalI would bet money this is fake "I notice you bought something with an ebt card then followed you to watch you buy something in cash, and now I'm driving right by you in the parking lot."
El.GuapoMaybe. But I see people doing shit like this all the time. I knew kids at my school who would buy people's groceries for them and trade it for cigarettes. Then they would sell the cigarettes to other minors at my school and make a profit and then they'd buy weed and shit.
nocturnalCool thank you for your one example about highschool kids that apparently got food stamps? I agree that the system gets abused, but people can't buy cigarettes and beer like Republicans and fox news says.

Chubz.Idk working in a grocery store i expedience this stuff a lot.
Lots of people buy like 30 dollar steaks and lobster tails and crab legs with their ebt cards, which pisses me right off. There should definitely be limitations of what you can and cant buy. Similar to the WICK system ot whatever its called. I see people who actually seem like they need the card but some people definitely take advantage of it. When you buy a hudred dollars worth of high end meats and sea food your abusing it. Shits retarded.
AlsoKnownAsI mean people stand outside of stores all the time trying to buy peoples groceries in exchange for $. Im not in anyway implying that all or even most people abuse the system, but its far beyond a rare occurrence.
Also it was meant to be a more temporary safety net than a permanent solution.
nocturnalCan't buy beer with an ebt card
CaseyWhat difference does it make how they spend it? Their getting the dollar amount they qualify for every month and when its gone its gone. This is a tiny drop in the ocean sized bucket when it comes to wasted tax dollars anyway. Plus, welfare and EBT is there to ensure a minimum standard of living for the children of these shitbags, who have no say in their parents bad decision making.

BombogenesisYou're missing the point. They don't literally buy that stuff with their bennies. They use the food stamps for food, then use cash for cigs, beer, lotto etC. I worked at a store in high school and the beginning of college. I saw it all the time.
Chubz.I dunno it just grinds my gears, seeing people who dont qualify for that shit and work their asses off to provide food for their families (that dont buy the super expensice stuff) and still see their reaction when i tell them the total of their groceries and struggle to get all the cash for it makes me feel for them. Then you have these scumbags buy some of the most expensive things in the store and pay for it with money they dont even work for pisses me off. You shouldnt be able to buy fucking lobster tails and super expensive steaks on ebt in my opinion it just doesnt make sense to me.

powderdrunkieExactly. If they stopped doing it, its not like my taxes will go down. I'm buying booze and steaks too after I give my 30% to uncle sam. Who cares
