I wonder if anyone has added up how much money, govt and religious non profit, goes to people for “basic needs” I suspect the number is huge to the point of ridiculous.
I wonder how many of those “low income families” have pets, flat screen TVs, smoke, drink alcoholic beverages, etc. you can spot people in the grocery store who are going to pay with EBT cards. They separate the dog food, prepared meals, wine, and the beer from the steaks, frozen pizzas, roasts, and actual staples and pay for the latter with the EBT card and the former with cash or another card.
