The funny part is that almost every customer uses an EBT card for their groceries. They are getting the stuff for free anyway. The store is nicknamed the Crack Kroger due to it's clientel and location.

I'm not sure how so many get EBT cards? Many of them work. They have employee ID badges on them for work at the school district, city, local hospitals, etc.....I just don't understand? I mean if they are working and driving a car (not like my old paid for beater), how do they get government assistance?

I don’t think what we have going on now is your father’s welfare. I see working people (as evidenced by uniforms, badges, etc.) using ebt cards all the time. Heck, even students get ebt cards! It’s incredible. You CHOOSE to go to college and because you are in college you get welfare??

The worst part is that ebt cards replace food stamps- you can now use the ebt for anything, not just healthy food. I see people using ebt cards for candy, cola, etc.

And THAT just answered the demographics question. They're already in the "dark"...
