Yeah... good for them for trying to help out. I wish them the best and I pray the vultures and opportunists stay away so those with a true need can be helped out a little. I grew up on welfare and I still remember the embarrassment of spending food stamps. Definitely left an impression on me... something I never wanted to use again. I guess using an EBT card probably isn’t so embarrassing... maybe we need to bring back the food stamps.
You are so correct. I worked in a grocery store for several years and it was a lot stricter. could only have unattached 1 dollar food stamps. Change was written down on a piece of paper and you had to “cash” them in on food. With the EBT cards, who knows if you are using foodstamps or not.
