“They should also immediately discontinue EBT card acceptance at fast food joints.”
Absolutely, #1.
Years ago I was talking to a State Senator from Tennessee and he was telling me that for awhile they were allowing EBT to be used in strip clubs. They actually had to pass a special law against it.

That’s INSANE.
But honestly, giving away stamps for years and years and years is ALWAYS insane.
My dearly departed pop pass in 1980...but he had his first stroke 15 years earlier.
We were on food stamps and welfare for about the 2 years it took for mom to get a nursing degree and a job.
She told me she used to shot in the middle of the night so no one could see her using food stamps because she was so embarassed.
That’s a little extreme but imagine if they were only given out for a limited time and in Extremely needful situations...then we would all know that the person using them really must need them and it wouldn’t be embarassing to use them.
Not that anyone is embarassed anymore.
That generation is gone.
Mom was a nurse for 25 years and is 92.
I was 14 when pop died and she was was 50...she had already been a nurse for over 10 years.
She was/is tough.

Just like the old WIC program, it listed the items you “could buy”, like milk, bread, eggs, cheese, etc. That would solve a lot of abuse, maybe.
“Discontinue use at fast food joints”?
But then, where would we find our next 450lb rapper?
