Walmart should save all the security video from the checkout lanes, and match up customer pics with checkout time for those who paid with EBT. Then bill the EBT $50 at a time until they’ve recovered them money. If the EBT holder complains, show them their own picture on the checkout line, and tell them “you bought it, you pay for it”.
For me, this is sickening. Forty two years ago I got pregnant at fifteen. The father and I married and will celebrate, if I don't kill him first, our forty two year anniversary this December. At seventeen he went to work and paid every penny of our child's expenses and supported us. No help to speak of from our families, and not only did we not receive ANY government assistance, we didn't seek any. When I think of him coming home in the middle of winter, having pulled a double shift, at seventeen and eighteen years of age, his feet soaking wet from the carpet mill die-house, I get sick when I see these ingrates taking advantage of the American taxpayers. They disgust me.
