That statement is NOT true and is full of snobbery.

The 48 hours after the EBT cards load are the busiest for the illegal drug trade.

Are there picture ID’s on the cards? In our area they are using food stamp groceries in kind for all sorts of things other than its intent.

I am very sympathetic to those who are less fortunate and in need physically, financially and mentally but there is way too much scamming the system. Using other’s cards for drugs, cash, etc. A disability as a result of drug misuse should not be a taxpayer’s burden. The “free” health care system is prime for the welfare cheaters. . . which beget, beget, beget unfortunately. . .the entire work ethic is lost through the generations.

I couldn’t agree more...I believe it’s the right thing to help people that are down and out but the scammers have totally abused these programs and that has got to be curtailed.

I don’t know if pics are on the cards or not.

I’m still trying to figure out when the LAST work-requirements were ‘un-law’d.

IIRC, it was during the election that Zero zero’d them out; but like anything from the Exec. that’s unlawful.

IOW, why not just undo what Zero do? It’s already on the books?!

I had to p** in the bottle seemed like every other month just to stay in the Army, why shouldn’t SNAP recipients?

If they enforce it, though, there will be rioting by the gibsmedats.

Everyone on welfare of any kind should be drug tested.

Drug test Congress and every Federal employee.

They are the biggest welfare class this country has ever produced.

Every small tech contract or temp job I took required a drug test.

I took the test at the same place multiple times a week for a while.

All welfare recipients shall pass a Ted Nugent interview.

If you want to be less than you can be, get high.
If you want to be the most that you can be, stay straight.
— Ted Nugent

The Trump administration is considering

= = = = = = = = = = = = =
The FIVE words that turn the Libs into blabbering, frothing at the mouth idiots

Doesn’t matter what follows, the MSM etal will launch into a tirade just to gripe.

I really wish PDT would sign that EO ‘ordering’ people to inhale and exhale every so often.

A good portion of the LIBS would be gone.
