I’m waiting for the government program that pays for flights to get outed. I’m amazed at how many people fly in this country that look like they hang out at gas stations. And I haven’t paid less than $300 for a flight in years.

If they run it as something else, then it's on the store, but you can't walk into Circle K and just ask for cigarettes and whip out an EBT card and its logged as Marlboro or whatever......keying it in maybe but most clerks are too lazy to key in anything.

OK, but not this, you've never been able to buy booze much less cigarettes with an ebt card straigt up.

lol you think shady arse gas stations and convince stores don’t do that? GTFO

We need to require photo ID to be used with EBT, in order to restrict tbe selling / transferring of them.
This would force the receiver of EBT to actually use it for its intention

Completely agree. It's amazing how much trash is on airplanes. Some low class psychopath walking in, sitting in his/her middle seat, and acting like he/she owns the place.

Yes the store should be held accountable but don’t act like the person using the EBT funds in that scenario isn’t abusing the system and committing fraud as well.

Remember when a couple weeks ago James O'Keefe exposed massive EBT fraud in New York City and the thread about it was roundly shat upon by morons on this board blaming the journalist exposing the fraud for people not being arrested?
Dude constantly exposes what should be HUGE scandals covered non-stop by the mainstream media but... of course... they ignore the stories. Can't have anything making Democrats or the most protected demographic look bad.

If the policies aren't being enforced on the government side, they could.

Police routinely arrest drug dealers with stacks of EBT cards.

Seems like common sense
Posted on 8/25/26 at 1:04 pm to Ailsa
It’s criminal for EBT to be used for non food items. And stupid for us to allow it.
Posted on 8/25/26 at 1:07 pm to Ailsa
A friend has worked for the local EBT office for 26 years and insist that it is 60% fraud From what I’ve seen over the years I believe it.
