Don't know. Not the point. The point is the cards are being used for things other than that for which they were intended. Should we really need to police the recipients? It is a gift that is being taken advantage of.
Which charity receives its "donations" at the point of a gun?
Give it up- I see your MO is the overly used failed tactic of “You said X but I read Y into it” stupidity. You’re currently doing it with another poster so obviously that’s what you do. I’m not interested in wasting time/ readers’ screen space. No response needed.
The healthier the food, the shorter the shelf life. I remember when the COVID pandemic required people to isolate for 14 days, I realized relying on fresh fruits and vegetables meant I couldn't stock 14 days of food.
The correct word is "their" unless you have a destination in mind.
Actually that;s who we should police. The people illegally accepting EBT payments. They apparently let it be known they're in the EBT fraud business.
I caught you basing your "solution" on the poor using the resources you are used to being readily available in your middle class neighborhood..
Most of the money goes to assholes who shouldn't be helped.....MOST not all.
Lower your taxation foot print. It's crucial.
Oh, but they do. Our local news sued for the data and had a pile, and I mean a pile of papers stacked on a desk showing the numbers (not names) of cards used at liquor stores and strip clubs.
I don't lie. You are wrong...
Welfare recipients take out cash at strip clubs, liquor stores and X-rated shops
They’re on the dole — and watching the pole. Welfare recipients took out cash at bars, liquor stores, X-rated video shops, hookah parlors and even strip clubs — where they presumably spent their ta…nypost.com
And here what RI had to do about it:
Republican-sponsored bills at the State House, a proposed ban on the use of EBT cards at liquor stores, casinos and strip clubs won House approval Thursday on a 66-to-1 vote.
It appears you are the liar...
Most of the money ends up in the pockets of extremely well paid administrators and other bureaucrats.
If 1,000 EBT users are making illegal transactions at liquor store X, then we arrest X. It's just like shutting down the pawn broker who buys hot items cuts crime much more than arresting the individual thieves.
MG- you couldn’t catch a fish so give it up. I told you no response from you was needed. Did you think I was joking? I enjoy most jokes but made it a clear statement. I always give people more than one chance to show they’re interested in exchanging ideas. We all have bad days. You have used up your 10, and I’ve been generous.

Why not arrest the person to whom the card was issued, for fraud.
I shot down your "solution", and now you're pitching a ***** that I didn't take it seriously. You saying the poor only have to walk to the local library to access the internet shows you're clueless.
The legislators need to be telling the businesses that if they are accepting EBT payments they are the one's breaking the law. And putting them out of business would solve the problem much faster than trying to police the individual EBT recipients.
