I wonder what percent of Targets food sales are on SNAP/EBT cards. Target is getting politically correct in order to keep cashing in on the government dole.

Well, they are competing with Walmart. The rules of economics still apply, but they've been perverted by government intervention.

Now, instead of competing for customers, they're competing for handouts.

There was a food stamp related thread, on FR the other day, that mentioned Walmart as the biggest retail beneficiary of SNAP/EBT $$ (something like 18% of the “pie”).

Not sure what Target’s % is.
