re: Yet ANOTHER conspiracy theory proven true- this time it’s SNAP benefits exchanged for cash

A good many of the recipients are on food stamps yet they sell them for 50 cents on the dollar

When someone would come into my dad's store, he would always ask for their name. Then he would tell them that if they ever came in and asked for this again, he would report them. He didn't want to report them because ultimately, it's their kids that pay the price. I am not sure how this is done now, but isn't it through a card? It seems they should be able to tell who the recipients of food stamps were that were using them illegally.

Also, a "Sweet Shop" setup in the 'hood. Everything in there is purchased with SNAP.

It's simple, You go there and exchange your SNAP benefits at 50 cents on the dollar.

You leave with cash in your pocket to buy drugs or whatever.

The Sweet Shop (Just somebody's house in the 'hood) buys groceries and essentials with the SNAP benefits and then resells them out of there home for cash. More cash than they paid out, obviously. But enough where they don't charge taxes and can undercut the actual grocery store.

Every 'hood i have ever been in has one or multiple of these. They have loaded shelves throughout there house. Multiple refrigerators and deep freezers all over the place.

If you in the 'hood and need a pound of ground beef and a 2 liter of Big Peach or Grape Drink, you got to the Sweet Shop, not Walmart.

While you are there you can get yourself a dixie cup or huckabuck (same thing, frozen kool-aid cup) depending on which 'hood you in.
