They’ll soon find that their hard-earned EBT dollars don’t buy as many Skittles and Arizona Teas as they used to

The price of food and goods are starting to go up - again - due to the new tax increases. Gas is due to hit $4 by spring.

Welcome to Obomaland. Hows that hope n change workin' out for ya now?

Could you explain that please? EBT dollars are not earned. They are given to the takers.

Tax increases do not necessarily mean higher prices for Skittles and Arizona Tea. There's really no connection.
