I have a Snackbar family that lives in my neighborhood. A dad, his wife, his mom. And 2 small kids. The mom and dad drive a Lexus and a Cadillac SUV. Their yard is always pristine. The grandma walks the kids in a stroller every morning, the wife is an absolute fricking smoke show! Curvey in all the right places. Thats all I got. I offered the husband a beer during trick or treat but he declined.

There’s always going to be some waste and fraud but the greater good is that people aren’t going hungry. Be grateful you aren’t on it. If it’s the budget you’re worried about there are far bigger fish to fry than trying to make the lives of the least fortunate even more miserable.

No, frick that.
The genuinely unfortunate deserve help…no question about that. But watching SNAP/EBT get openly abused by people who keep landing in the same situation because of their own repeated choices is where taxpayer patience starts to wear thin.
At a certain point, it stops feeling like “compassion” and starts feeling like the people footing the bill are just expected to shrug and accept it.
Taxpayers aren’t supposed to be grateful while fraud and misuse get brushed off as some unavoidable cost of doing business. “Some waste is inevitable” isn’t a serious answer when it’s our money being drained and the system barely seems interested in drawing a line.

About as long as we can support VA disability abuse.

We need to start and go back to making it shameful being an able bodied adult and unable to buy your own food...

and the system barely seems interested in drawing a line.
Fresh food only period no exceptions. Don’t like it, don’t eat. This country can feed everyone within the borders twice over. frick the big food companies and frick the big retailers. If it’s not an unprocessed pantry staple of fresh meat/vegetables it should not be purchased with taxpayer funds
