I dunno, I've seen $30,000 Harleys parked in front of $5,000 trailer homes. So maybe you are right.
Sure you can use the EBT money to get cigs and alcohol by selling your EBT, ie get the stuffs someone else needed for maybe like 50% and trade them for cash ...hence EBT for cigs and booze

For the benefit of those, possibly including yourself, who see this type of fraud going on "all the time", here is the list of state-by-state Food Stamp Fraud Hotline numbers. Copy yours down. Carry it with you always. Next time (like this afternoon) you see more of this rampant cheating going on, jump on the cellphone and do something about it.

For the benefit of those who simply made up the stories that they posted here, never mind...

Annapolis? Heck...forget about it if you're rich. You can't get diddly-squat down there anymore unless you're on Section-8...

This is what socialism and welfare programs bring you. You are punished in this country for working. If the state and local government doesn't get you the Federal taxes kill you. Time and time again Government wants more of your money to secure the welfare of those who stay at home and don't have to work because they have you to work for them. Obama, Hillary and even McCain all support the welfare state idealogy.
America has lost the liberty of individuals who work hard and try to make ends meet and do the right thing get punished and are considered RICH. You are RICH you are evil, and greedy according to some in washington and they think you have to much money.
I think you have every right to be mad and should be acting out and start demanding your Government leave you alone and you stop stealing from your paycheck and end this dam programs.

Solution and personal Liberty.
Time for a revolution for our freedom again.
Ron Paul 2008.

Sort off..socialism mindset is completely different where everyone is working towards the general goal and everyone have nationalism and very strong sense of pride towards their country

....here you have people taking full advantage of the welfares and don't give a damn about the country or anyone for that matter but themselves!

Right next to the bags of gold that they got on their last trip to Ft Knox. The government is soooooo nice to people on welfare.

I don't know how they got bags. My neighbor told me that when his daughter-in-law's stepmother's aunt went up to West Point last summer and told them she was on welfare, they started handing her these gold bars. Daggone things must weigh a ton! How was she supposed to get those things back to the Rolls...

Yeah that is if you believe in that. Problem is not everyone believes in the same goal that the Government should manage services, jobs and the econmony which is what gets us into this mess. Since this country was founded it was a country based on freedom and Individual liberty not general goal collectivism and socialism. That is the EU view of Government and the wrong one. Since we started down the path of collectivism and socialist programs in the the United States it's population has moved to dependancy instead of liberty. Our Constitution has been eroded and we have moved closer to tryanny and Powerful Government all in the name of collectivism managed by the Eilte in washington.
If I was to build a case in court for Liberty verses Collectivism and Socialism, Facism and Communism, Liberty would win hands down. Keep in mind in the United States we have capitalist/socialism society not a country with economic and personal liberty. The closest we have had Liberty was the day we create the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. It is those who have decided not to defend and protect everyones rights are the ones who have been against the princples of Liberty. Which is why we have slavery and women weren't able to vote because some didn't follow the concept of liberty and justice for all men and women and even today many can't except the concept. These people need to Government to manage religion, sexual perferences, personal choices and income levels. Government should only protect the individuals and protect life on a case by case basis and have fair justice system. Government should be limited and provide common defense of the nation. All citizens should own guns as a right to preserve the liberty set forth in the Constitution and protect it from abusive power of Government. In a socialist society Government is to big to allow Liberty to exist.

Sounds to me like you might want to forsake New Jersey (1,134 people per square mile) in favor of maybe Wyoming (5 people per square mile)...
