I manage a convience store. It is amazing the number of people that use food stamps. I can tell by the pile of junk on the counter that they are going to use food stamps, $4 energy drinks, large bags of chips, $6 bags of jerkey, 2 ltr pop, lots of candy bars, and slushys. After paying for the junk with an EBT card, they then pull out cash to buy, cigarettes, lottery and scratcher tickets.

Time to go back to commodities.

You are preaching to the choir. I worked in the grocery business for a good number of years. When the first of the month rolled around, the moochers would be coming in to get their T-bones and NY Strip steaks. The people who actually worked at the store could only afford Hamburger Helper.
