If nothing is done, it means millions of children will suffer
from hunger due to their parent or parents making use of their food stamp
cards to purchase illegal drugs; gambling in casinos and visiting strip
clubs.
Let's see some figures on how many people are doing any such thing
without being caught and stopped.
Why not go back to the older system where food stamp coupons were used to
buy food and only for real food and not for whiskey. That system worked
very well for dozens of years.
No, it didn't. There was a HUGE black market in those pieces of paper.
The food stamp cards that work like credit cards make fraud and abuse far
easier.
No, it doesn't. How can knowing exactly how the money is being spent
make fraud and abuse easier. Selling pieces of paper is where the fraud
was. Which is one of the reasons it was changed.
How could food stamp coupons be used to get into strip joints and gamble
at Indian casinos?
You sell them to somebody for cash.
Are you really this ignorant? If you're going to complain about
something, it is absolutely necessary for you to know what you're
talking about.
Jason would be absolutely silent if he weren't allowed to spout his vile
opinions until he had some evidence.
He clearly has the delusion that SNAP cards can be used the same way a
pre-loaded debit card is and he will never bother to find out why he is
wrong.
