i couldnt decide if political chunk is a pathological liar or as dumb as a box of rocks, then i decided that the two aren't mutually exclusive.

Your thread title is a lie. As is the main point of this thread.

Spoken like the typical liberal who hates the truth. See, I know when a post is the truth when a liberal wastes the time to post "this is a lie" without a single shred of evidence to back up that statement, or hell, even an OPINION as to why they THINK it is a lie.

The fact that you offered nothing, just proves that you are the liar.

If you don't already know that it's impossible to render food stamps as payment for porn, then you're a damn idiot!! If you need proof of that, then you have much bigger issues.

Post #510 proves....as though any more proof than your insipid posts were necessary....that you know less than nothing.

If someone proves to me that a person in MA with an EBT card with $100 worth of food stamp benefit on it can go to an ATM and get $100 cash,

then I will admit I am wrong.

A friend of my brothers next door neighbor lives in Mass and he gets lap dances for food stamps

Is that enough proof?

If you let the dancer use your EBT card, you can work out a deal.

It is completely false.

1. Massachusetts pays the food stamp benefit via an EBT card.

2. The EBT card and the retailers' recipient scanner, can determine the eligibility of purchases for use with the food stamp benefit balance.

3. You cannot purchase porn with food stamps via an EBT card because porn is not food.

Why is that so difficult for you and the rest of the morons in this thread to comprehend?

Try to overcome your love of the myth for once and accept the truth. You're lying; your source is lying; everyone who agrees with you and your source are lying.

In addition to being very, very stupid, it seems that you suffer, additionally, from A.D.D.

With that in mind, here, again, is the dispositive evidence:

"I know that you are not lying....I don't suggest that you behave in that manner....

rather, the basis of your posts is that you are very, very stupid.

I doubt there is anything you can do about that....

But, enough chit-chat.
To the point: In addition to everything listed in this thread as abuses of the welfare, EBT, etc. benefits system, the said items are used to make bail or pay fines, to join health clubs, to gamble, or to buy firearms, porn, cosmetics, travel services, tattoos, jewelry, or tickets to sporting events or movies.

Why and how?

Because human beings engage in all sorts of voluntary transfers....

I understand that based on your "limitations" you are unable to imagine that criminality takes place...and is often treated with a blind eye.

Democrats regularly block reforms...

While this won't be of any help to you....others may have an "Oh, I see...." moment:


1. "A fed-up House Speaker Robert DeLeo told the Herald he is fast-tracking EBT card reforms and has proposed tougher crackdowns — including a ban on using the cards for bail money — as a major part of the House budget unveiled today at the State House.

“Having read of some of the abuses which you’ve published at various times, it just continues to anger me in terms of trying to get some control over the program to make sure these types of abuses don’t exist,” DeLeo told the Herald in a sit-down interview inside his State House office this morning.

DeLeo’s plan makes it illegal to use the taxpayer-funded cards to make bail or pay fines, to join health clubs, to gamble, or to buy firearms, porn, cosmetics, travel services, tattoos, jewelry, or tickets to sporting events or movies.

Stores breaking EBT card laws could also lose their liquor or lottery licenses. The reforms are so urgently needed that DeLeo wants to bypass the typical committee process and fast-track them to next year’s budget, he said.

“I think this shows ... how high a priority we see this,” said DeLeo. “Even if (the state) were rolling in money, any abuse of public funds is wrong, and I think we have to send a strong message that we’re going to do everything we can to stop it.”

2. "The crux of the issue surrounding EBT and the abuse of EBT cards has to do with the fact that the cards are easily transferable to cash,”
CLT Update: May 26, 2012 - Senate Dems duck serious reform, spend more on EBT card fraud


3. Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) cards (the debit card equivalent of food stamps) have been at the center of a heated national discussion on welfare reform. There have been numerous reports of EBT card abuse and some states have started cracking down on card holders. Of course, whenever someone talks about welfare reform, one side of the political spectrum claims it’s “racially motivated.”
However, even those claims might be put aside for a moment in Massachusetts after a heroin allegedly posted bail with his EBT card.

.

Nothing you said refutes the fact that the food stamp benefit cannot be converted into cash via the EBT card.

You must have set the "Guinness Dim-Wit Record"....


....let's see if you can ignore it THREE times:

It would, no doubt, require too much in the way of honor to expect you to apologize three times...

....how about once?

It will be good for your soul.

It has been proven.

And you won't.

Not unexpected.

Didn't God kill the first born sons of Egypt?
Didn't God kill millions of babies in his flood?

I assume that you agree with the Christians who kill abortionists and claim they are the hand of God.

Dont ask me, ask god

He is the one who killed all those babies

Possibly you are distantly acquainted with the concept of 'free will'?

Then again....I've seen your posts.....

Those of us religious folks had a meeting and agreed to free will in the sense that some may view the Bible as literal, while others as allegorical and philosophical, designed to teach lessons in morality and behavior.

Not being Liberal's, many of us do not feel the need to behave like iron filings in a magnetic field.

Another concept foreign to you?

That is not proof of anything and doesn't even mention an EBT and a cash machine.

You have to prove it. I'd start with the official website of Massachusetts if I were you.

You want to ask folks to pay more taxes you are going to have fix folks gaming the safety net system.

That's an argument against increasing defense spending that no conservative here will accept.

First off he probably vetoed it because there is no need, unless you can buy porn, tattoos, and manicures at a grocery store or at C store.
The faux outrage is quite hilarious though. You do realize a store that sells porn, tattoos, or manicures would probably never be capable of taking a EBT card, right?
The only way you could stop it is by not allowing the card to be used at an ATM... But that would be more government control, right?

So like I said the governor probably vetoed the bill becAuse it is stupid and a waste. Whomever introduced the bill is a hack looking for political points.
