My word! Aren't you a nosey mofo? It's interesting that it's always conservatives or republicans not on welfare that tend to pay attention to what the person in front of them are purchasing and what they use. When I'm in line, I don't look to see what the person in front had and how they will pay for it. I guess I'm not a nosey bee like some of you here. I'm too concerned with placing my groceries on the counter so I can hurry and get home.
Did you follow the woman out the store to find out if she got in a cadillac?
Hard working taxpayers have every right to know how their hard earned money is being used.
I don't think poor people need pot or lottery tickets. Pot just makes them lazier and lottery tickets is just more of that thinking that wealth should come without work.
I'd give them free meth because maybe they need some energy to want to get up off the sofa and turn off the television and do something, maybe rake leaves, clean houses.
simple solution: food stamps (or their like) can only be used to purchase fresh fruit, veggies, meat, fish, poultry, dairy, dried beans, rice, fruit juices, spices, baking from scratch items,cookware, and cookbooks. NO: frozen dinners, cans, ice cream, processed foods, etc etc. you get the idea.
This will teach the recipient responsibility and planning ahead and develop their self esteem.
plus it will help our family farmers
That's a good idea. Welfare recipients tend to be uneducated, on the lower end of the IQ scale, pregnant and have little ability to choose nutritious foods.
It's wrong to let them have at it in the grocery store because like little kids, they'll fill their carts with cookies, ice creams, soft drinks. They don't know how to comparison shop since they weren't exactly the over-achievers in school. They can't figure out that a bag of potato chips is a bag of unhealthy empty calories and that they can get a ten pound bag of wholesome fresh potatoes that provide nutrition.

I'm not nosy. The woman was RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. I couldn't help but notice. And of course it pisses me off.
A small group of people shouldn't be supported by the rest of us. I'm fine with helping them through tough times with BARE NECESSITIES but not chips, sodas, cookies, candy, CIGARETTES, lotto tickets. NO!

Well, keep watching. If it helps you sleep at night, knock yourself out!

Preparing, cooking and eating basic foods deprive all of the middlemen-businesses of their enterprise.
Cheetos
Ding Dongs
Hamburger Helper.
Happy Meals
The list is very long - and it IS the American economy.
Fat people are the most patriotic - show some respect.
I suppose you are (sadly) right.
