So what? They’ll use their own money to buy beer, chips, etc...

I see it all the time. First person uses foods stamps, then the 2nd family member, in line behind them, uses cash to buy the beer.

My SIL uses her food stamps to buy tuna for her 3 cats rather than paying cash for cat food, thus allowing her to have some extra money for (expensive) cosmetics and vodka.

She collected food stamps based on having her (lazy) daughter living there. She continued to collect the higher amound for nearly a year after the girl left. And suffered no penalty for failing to report it.

How many people getting food stamps have you known that *don’t* smoke cigarettes and own pets?
