^^^^ Actually the last time I checked you CAN (of course, it being FOOD items)! From working at Food Lion for like 5 years, I'm SO SICK of seeing worthless ass ppl WASTING their EBTs on popsicles, chips, "PURPLE DRANK", and candies. Lazy ppl who COULD work and buy their illegitimate kids JUNK food. I don't think I EVER, EVER saw anyone on food stamps purchase vegetables and meats. NOT ONCE! What is the world coming to?!?!?!
You're thinking about about WICs. Those are restricted to certain items/brands.

bethaleigh All American 18902 Posts user info edit post |
I work at Food Lion too, and yes you can buy any kind of FOOD item on EBT.
And it really irritates me to no end too seeing people come in there and fill their carts with instant meals: frozen pizza, hamburger helper (maybe), stouffers, kids cuisine, little debbie, ice cream, chips, sugary snacks and not a single piece of fresh fruit or fresh meat to be found! It that don't scream "I'm so lazy that not only will I not work, but I aint fixing my children a decent meal either", then I don't know what does!

^^^^ Exactly. But it's like only Food Lion milk, kraft cheeses, JIF PB (I think), certain nasty cereals, but I guess it's worthwhile for parents.
^ YUP! Hate that shit!!!!!
But it sucks, b/c for ppl like me in my situation who have ALWAYS busted their ass with like 70 HOURS a WEEK (with two jobs) to get by and pay bills that now CAN'T WORK b/c of an injury or whatever, can't really get food stamps or Medicaid. Talkin' bout "I saw $300 in your acct last week." "YEAH BITCH ASS! That's my MAMA'S money in my account to pay my damn car note!" Grrrr!!!
They talkin' bout they need 10 forms of ID...like I'm some damn kind of US ALIEN or some shit. License, Birth Certificate, S.S card, apartment lease, car insurance card, bank account info and balances, proof of income (pay stubs if any), etc etc....WTF!!
If a fucking NON-ENGLISH SPEAKING bitch can walk around sportin' like 10 BAD ASS kids can get food stamps and shit, why can't I??? It ain't my fault she couldn't keep her legs shut!!!!!!!

the worst is when they get $200 worth of meat for free, then they pull out a 100 $ bill to pay for a pack of smokes and 12 pack of beer...

^^ what are you talking about?
at $6/hr you likely have an effective tax rate of approx 0%. I do agree though. I am glad once i start my full time job in wilmington this August; 1/3 of my money will be going to a gov't that forces me to subsidize other peoples children and rewards laziness.

yes classic. At food lion last month i was in line behind a "darker complexion" woman who was buying a few groceries with her EBT; also in the cart were 6 40's and a case of miller high life. I am glad uncle sam assists our poor so they can afford plenty of booze!

if you're a student you have to work 20 hrs a week (no under the table) or do a work study job to be eligible for food stamps (thats if you don't have a kid)

i had a friend (female) who tried to get food stamps.. she was going to school, and working part time (trying to better herself) and was denied food stamps. she was told it was because she didn't have a kid. so she got her brother to apply, and he didn't have a job or a kid, and wasn't going to school and got them. wtf?!
so i guess generally people that use food stamps piss me off, and people that really need them can't get them. i hate the system.
Quote : | "no, not fed.. i got all state back, very little fed... i was claimed as a dependent by my parents.. not sure if that changes things.." |
my mom always claimed me, and i would file for independent to see how much i would get, then officially file dependent. when the returns came my mom would get more for claiming me than i would have gotten if i filed by myself, so she would give me the difference for what i would have gotten if i had filed independent. that way we would both win.
if that doesn't make sense it's because i just woke up... rarg.

i hate how they can use the ebt cards now, so it looks very different than using a debit card
make them use paper food stamps, so all around can see where their tax dollars are going. if it's a family in true need, i'm happy to help, but if it's people like described above, they deserve some humiliation. 7/2/2008 7:52:26 AM |

^ yeah EBT cards takes the shame out of using food stamps to help discourage unneeded use. Although I probably does save teh tax payer $millions to do it electronically versus creating a bunch of paper stamps all the time.
Quote : | "she was told it was because she didn't have a kid." |
yeah i find it bullshit that the gov't encourages low income to procreate thus forcing the tax-payer to subsidize their children. For your sister this sounds like only a temporary financial situation; but for far to many people low income is a way of life with our gov't encouraging them to breed more future low income tax burdens.7/2/2008 1:01:13 PM |
