—Everyone I see at the Food Lion that uses EBT usually drives a new car.—
A couple months ago I was standing in the “No more than 12 items” line behind a minority woman. She had at least 30 items in her cart. Paid with an EBT card. I had one item so I was right behind her out the door. She was parked a couple spaces from my 15 year old Highlander. She got into a giant black Caddy Escalade. It still had the stickers in the back side window and temp plates! EBT!

I play that game too. It’s fun in a weird kind of validation way.

I ran into the post office the other day for the first time in quite awhile. I noticed that the stamp machine now takes EBT cards. Now you don’t suppose anyone ever exchanges postage stamps for cash, do you?

Well, yeah. Think of the debt that poor woman was in! Do you know how much Escalades cost?

We should probably make luxury car dealers take EBT cards and cut to the chase...

I hear ya!

so after your customer in the Caddy EBT’d her 30 items in the 12-item line, she probably went on over to the vision place next :(

I have good vision, but was fearful that I might need classes to pass driving test...So I went to a Pearl Vision (large national chain) located by our DMV for a quick test, and the doctor told me there is much fraud with glasses...Tho she did not have a lot of time to elaborate, she said unbelievable they types of cars the people with medicaid drive—she mentioned Escalades!

Makes me furious, but 35 years ago, someone once told me that foods stamps are the best for of riot control we have—that was 35 years ago, and I am sure the numbers were small by comparison :(
