Many Wal-Mart customers use EBT cards

I make a decent living and we shop at Walmart all the time. I know many people who shop at Wal-Mart and I don't know anyone with an EBT card. Inflation hurts all sales. High unemployment coupled with high inflation rate = Jimmy Carter II. I read Wal-Mart is bringing back firearms to many of its stores that it had formerly removed them. Is that an EBT card shopper item? I don't think so.

I was not suggesting that all WM shoppers use EBT cards. I have been shopping at WM for more than 15 years. I am a subscriber to the old wag that “if Wal-Mart doesn’t have it, I don’t need it.”

And I can well afford NOT to shop at Wal-Mart. Which, in fact, may be BECAUSE I’ve shopped mostly at Wal-Mart for over 15 years.

But the fact remains that in many areas many EBT card-holders use W-M. Wouldn’t you? I sure as shootin’ would if I were on foodstamp kind of money.
