Burger King and Pizza Hut (along with a few others) are of the first to begin accepting EBT/ Food Stamps. How do you feel about this?
In my opinion, this is preposterous. Prepared served food has a premium price for the service. One can get much more food at the grocery store for the price. Someone said to me recently, "so someone receiving assistance doesn't deserve to go out and eat?" No! You're paying more for less food and it's considerably more unhealthy! It's just that, assistance. I'm not one to have the "I pay for your food and living" mentality. I couldn't care less that a small portion of my check goes to people in need. This however, infuriates me. Thoughts?

I always thought Papa Murphys hit gold when they figured out a way to take EBT. That was 20 years ago. And places where they scan a generic bar code, for beer and cigarettes, and take EBT. really EBT, should only be used for basic food items, like WIC. But corporate food lobbyists would scream.
You should see how many of them we have here on the border -- and they're always packed.
I thought in some parts of the country, restaurants were accepting food stamps years ago.
Really more and more, there's no good reason to get up every morning and go to work. Just get on welfare handouts and you actually can have more than the chumps they call taxpayers.
Why do people think because someone gets a government check they have to eat 'healthy".
I thought we were free in this Amerika?????
Collecting government assistance is a priviledge, not a right.
