No, I don't justify it.

I should know better than to act like it goes without saying that it isn't justified - considering some Democrat opposition to banning the use of government hand out money at strip clubs and casinos.

That's what every other post in this thread keeps reminding them of but they fail to acknowledge it because their SOCO (Single Overriding Communication Objective) is "Food Stamps being Used to Buy Edible Panties!!!!".

Most places do not automatically accept it unless they are already approved.
