I was behind a group last week at Walmart using an EBT card at Walmart with their cart overflowing. They were young and looked like they could work, yet I would bet not one had a job, nor was looking for a job. Also had expensive sneakers, as this group typically does. And after they checked out, they stopped at McDonalds!

When SHTF happens, be on the lookout for pimped out Hondas and people with expensive shoes. At least we can see them coming a mile away.

What happens is the mother doesn’t list anybody on the birth certificate and the father has some day job. The mother collects full benefits and so long as dad’s working, the family lives pretty well. Including new cars. It’s unbelievable, but it happens all the time. There really ought to be negative repercussions for not declaring a father on the birth certificate. And then the father and mothers’ incomes both need to be figured before granting food stamps. It’s a huge abuse of the system and it’s happening more and more.
