If someone wants to eat lobster one night and not have any more food for a week, why would you care? If someone qualifies for food stamps, they get a certain amount according to income. What they buy does not change anything. Selling food stamps is something else. I would imagine some really poor people may sell part of theirs for cash to purchase things other than food - like cleaning products, toilet tissue, etc. Food stamps don’t pay for those items. Why all the hate against people who get food stamps? I’m sure a lot of people receiving them have worked and paid taxes over a number of years and Obama’s economy has hit them really hard. Have a heart.

PS Cleaning products? You have got to be kidding me, right?

Because I'm paying for it!

I don't care at all about what someone does with their own money. When it comes to my money you bet your sweet ass I do care! I don't dine on luxury foods and a person getting money from my pocket ought not to be dining on them either.
