It is still monitoring food expenditures. Cut welfare if you want ... I’m fine with that. But, if you’re going to give it to ‘em, let them buy their food without a babysitter. Its just a pie. Not the best use of welfare money ... but not nearly the worst. There are bigger fish to fry.

Businesses should have the option of not accepting food stamps, though. Not sure if they do.

When young mother’s get WIC cards they are limited in their food selections. There are signs in the stores designating which items are allowed. I think the same should apply to EBT cards,

Being on welfare should be uncomfortable.

But that's exactly what's happening here. It's a private retailer saying no, I will not accept EBT for my products. No one is monitoring what people are eating.
