Re: EBT Cards
I would call it more common sense then belief. I see it all the damn time around here. Well i did forget to mention she was driving a suburban, out with her friends not kids, and on the way to go clubbin. Its just to damn common for me even remotely believe its a minor issue.

The abuse isn't minor. The system needs an overhaul. If, for nothing else, to restore some confidence in it from those who pay in.
I'd rather see distribution centers than cash given. At least that way, I know my money went for butter, milk, and bread rather than beer, cigs, and crack.

Re: EBT Cards
I'd rather take a look at the old data, and see where it's gone wrong. If you honestly believe that the Welfare/Food Stamp/EBT program is not flooded with abuse, you need to look closer. Data collected by the same people who set up the programs is worthless. Sure, there are many who don't abuse it, but many many more who do. A drive into the rougher part of your town will open your eyes when you see all of the places that take them, and what people are allowed to buy with them.
Plus.....There is no way the music could be any more horrible.deputyfestus liked this post

Re: EBT Cards
I also think the abuse is much greater than reported. It is not being policed at all in my opinion. I think its cool to want to help people, hell I want to help people.
The only data that I need to see is A. The unemployment rate and B. The number of companies that are hiring.
I also see escalades, bmw's and Cadillacs parked in front of the government assistance housing here in Birmingham.
Where is the data anyway? How many people are receiving this benefit? Actually how many are receiving this benefit and that one and the other one and you know that other deal. We have people making a career off the back of those that work hard. Where is the data?
My question is this, why are you of the opposite opinion so trusting? Why is it that you think it so isolated? Lastly why are we not physically taking these people on welfare down to the people looking for employees and helping them fill out an application?
Welfare reform and how I think it should be structured will be my next topic. Grab some popcorn.
