If someone is so poor they need assistance, where do they get the $ for drugs? My guess is they trade their EBT cards for cash, which goes for all kinds of goodies, like booze, strip clubs, gambling casinos, etc.
what, you never heard of the illinois subsidized dope program?
just kidding
There is NO proof required to claim you're poor....you just do "cash" business, and there's no paper trail at all.
Likewise, convienience stores, groceries, etc. in the inner-cities have a "going-rate" for food stamp exchange for cash, and then the cash goes to the bling, crack, and tattoo parlor dealers, etc.
This is BLATANT, and four generations of certain ethnic groups have developed this as a "way of life"....except for those who also deal drugs on the side, to supplement their income, or steal cars, and whatever else they can steal to get added income in the black market deals for items.
Reality of the inner-city/Democrat-run cesspools is ALWAYS ignored by the State Run Media, and there are inner-city areas that even the police are afraid to enter......
