Wonderful. Fraud exists everywhere. Obviously it is wrong. Not really on topic though. It is what you use the food stamps for in the store. If you are selling them for meth, then this doesn't affect you anyway.

When a guy goes into a store and is able to turn in his stamps for cash he usually isn't going to invest that money. Hopefully he is buying cigarettes and liquor and not crack and a hot gun. Nonetheless it affects everyone and especially those footing the bill.

Then when Akmand the store owner turns in the $200 in stamps he gets cash. Of course since he didn't sell any food he is now able to be creative on paper diverting his 100% profit to fake distribution companies hopefully not in Iran or Syria. Multipy by a 100 people and he's pulling in $10K/Month with no taxes for counting money and mailing an envelope. Multiply that by number of stores and you get the idea. Another fine taxpayer-subsidized fiasco.

i saw fried chicken mentioned. no prepared food is allowed. so theyd have to buy frozen and take it home to cook. seems like nutritional food is what it should be for, and soda is deinitely not nutritional or a ncessary item for survival.

Foods stamps wont get you toilet paper or tampons which seems kinda stupid because ALL people NEED T.P.

When I said Fried chicken, I meant in regards to Crisco.

Add to this all the subsidized nonagenarian Asians that have never worked a day in this county, as they're recent immigrants, and all the recent immigrant Arabs having their food subsidized while driving $50k SUV's, and you kind of wonder why they don't crack down on who exactly is getting subsidized rather than what they can buy. Nothing like all the foreigners teaching the locals how to manipulate the system. And we're worried about soda?

Food "stamps" haven't been real coupons ("stamps) for some years now. Food assistance is a debit card with an amount loaded on by the government, and having a PIN set by the person getting the assistance. In grocery stores where the card is swiped, it will reject paying for non-food items (like toilet paper, guns, cigarettes, etc)

About the only way left to get cash for your food assistance now is to buy groceries with it, then stand in the parking lot trying to sell those groceries to others at half-price for cash out of your trunk (what they do at a local WalMart near where I live, and yes, illegal)

Or they go into a mini mart and buy a couple gallons of milk w their EBT card, walk out to the car and then come back in "my girlfriend says we have milk at home can I return these?" Return them for cash and then suddenly remember he needed to get a couple of powerball tickets and some scratch offs. I've seen it done more than once.

really???? there are a lot of people who buy food stamps.

Its called having the person with the card go with you to the store.

or

Have the person give you the card and the pin #.

Its pretty simple.
