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

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.

I’m fine with that. Retailers shouldn’t be forced to accept welfare payments. We’d be better off if fewer did.

But, I wouldn’t support the government monitoring this stuff, which I get the feeling is what she was asking for. She should be able to decide for herself, but using government to monitor the junk food intake of welfare brats is a waste of time.
