A CK and food stamps?

AH! that explains that (I was wondering about the CK myself, but didn't want to ask).
I know people that buy food stamps from those that get them thru legit channels for cash. The buyer knows the markets they can shop at without getting carded or ID'ed, so they figure they get a great deal on groceries. The seller gets cash to buy those things that food stamps can't buy. Not always good things, like food or clothes. Thats probably why CJ's girl left with an empty cart, it wasn't worth the questions that could have come up...
I used to work for a guy that would buy $50 or $100 worth of meat every couple weeks from a couple that would take orders, then go shoplift the meat from the grocery store. Did that for many years before I met him, and I am sure for years afterward. They had an entire route they worked every month.
There is a black market for everything. You just have to know who to talk to.
And that is the EXACT reason I called her out!!! I work hard, pay my dues, and I support the low lifes that want to exist on my hard work! I'm SO over this :censored: that I cannot put my thoughts into words!

All I can say is Grrr!
 
It's not just food stamps. Somewhere along the line, too many people have lost the sense of their own responsibility, and been rewarded for it.
Programs to repair/rebuild hurricane damaged housing, when the owner opted not to insure it.
An Earned Income Credit if you have a low paying job, which continues to be paid year after year with no incentive to improve your situation.
An $8000 credit to buy a new house, that may have been beyond your means. The initial program was an interest free loan that had to be repaid, a responsibility, but it morphed into a freebie.
$1000 for every child you have below age 17, whether you really need it or not. Interestingly, the first year SSN's were required for dependents on tax returns, there was a significant decline in the number of children in the country.
And the list goes on. Many of these programs are needed, but there are no checks and balances, no call for personal responsibility.
Rant over.
