An informal survey of people using EBT cards in front of me at the supermarket check-out lane tells me that two thirds of them are buying food I can't afford and a majority of those are driving away in vehicles I can't afford.

Most people from around the country tell me that my experience is typical, not exceptional.

I saw it a few times in California. There is no doubt it happens.

I sometimes shop at a Chinese grocery. The owner recently installed large tanks for fresh fish, clams, and Alaskan King Crab at $40 per lb. I asked him: "who can afford to buy this?"

His answer: "Its all foodstamps." He then pointed out some Russians who just departed and were getting into a Lexus SUV. "They are EBT too."
