Oh no, I personally thought it was great debate dialog. It was productive. And my whole game effort is “matter of fact” as I know it and positive productive results. I try to address the topic rather than get personal. The only time I get bothered is when someone stalks me with low IQ fourth grade insults and ignorant activity. It is unproductive and just wastes precious time, effort, disk space, and achieves absolutely nothing. I just do not have time for the unnecessary fourth grade level conflict. I think as a whole the folks here are just more intelligent and above that. As conservatives we are supposed to be the adults in the room. Well most of them anyway. :)
And I KNOW you are my friend. You are one of the top analytical minds on this board... It is a pleasure to debate with you or support you when the opportunity arises. It is all good. :)
Just limited to US citizens would be a big reduction, even with all the other fraud.
I’m fully aware the state controls this (as it’s listed on a Maryland govt page). That should not matter. Maryland Tax payers are still paying for it - such as myself. Btw, there are several states who allow for snap benefits inside restaurants .
Here are the states in which snap covers expenses inside of a restaurant.. (scroll down)

A Maryland crab feast covered by snap really ticks me off.
PS: “Since SNAP’s start in its current form nearly 50 years ago, the federal government has fully funded the cost of SNAP food benefits while states, which screen for eligibility and issue benefits, have paid roughly half of the cost of administering SNAP.”
Oh, I agree wholly. The point is, someone other than the leech (someone who would use SNAP in a restaurant) is paying for it.
I think we both agree that is completely wrong.
Yes, I agree and that was the point of my post,
