A tv station here in Indy got a computer file on where all ATM withdrawals were made with Indiana TANF cards.
Hawaii, Calif, Vegas, Puerto Rico, Nevada brothels, casinos across the country, etc.
Definitely could be good campaign material if used correctly.
Im not defending public assistance, but in Fl., the benefit for a mother with one child is $158/cash, $367/food stamps. Not doing alot of gambling on $158/month after paying the cell bill and getting your nails did.
Yup. That's good stuff. What I'd also like to see is some of the data captured by some of the large chains on exactly what is purchased on the cards. They'd be able to generate some really interesting statistics, I'd bet.
