Now I just need to find out where in Florida I can buy food stamps at less than half face value so I can cut my grocery bill in half.

How about we start giving out FOOD instead of food stamps from now on? This along with required drug testing for those getting assistance would collapse every blighted section of society nearly overnight.

For the life of me, I can’t understand why the WIC model (coupons for specific foods, in specific quantities) has not been adopted across the welfare system. The gov’t seems so gung-ho to tell the rest of us what we should eat, so why not do some “nutritional planning” for people who eat on the taxpayer’s dime?

BINGO!

Food is probably the LEAST use of Food Stamps and Welfare Debit Cards in EVERY major U.S. city. "OBAMA MONEY....from his Stash..."; that's the way it's treated, and that's why 90%+ of the black voters vote for The Messiah.

Actually, I doubt if there are any “food stamps” anywhere in the country now. Pretty sure they all get plastic cards — called here in MD “Independence” (chortle!) cards.

They would just sell the food.
