I say let them buy whatever they want with their own money.

When they’re mooching off the rest of us, we should have a say in what they buy. If I had a say, all a food stamp card would buy would be beans and rice with a little milk thrown in for the kids.

Of course the SecAg doesn’t want to ban junk food bought with food stamps. Those are Obama’s voters.

It's amazing how upside-down the world is. People who are spending their own money get interdicted by neo-Puritan laws, but social assistance recipients get their "rights" observed to a T.

Might get to the point where people will go on food stamps merely to eat what they want...
