Agreed.

When i was growing up, it was Food Stamps, not an EBT card. You were heavily restricted in what you could buy with them. No soda, chips, cakes, candy, etc.

Some stores reported Foid Stamp users if the bought food with stamps and a pile of crap with cash at the same time.

In any case, this Nation is broke. If you are capable of working, work or starve. If not, you shouldn’t be getting fatter off my wallet.

When I was growing up my family spent a short time during a coal mine lay off getting “relief.” I recall getting powdered eggs and a type of meat in a can. We may have gotten cheese, but I was pretty young and don’t recall.

We do not want to dictate behavior like Donks, so junk food is their choice ON THEIR OWN DIME. We will not financially help them become sickos.
