That doesn't even make sense. With or without food stamps, people still
consume food.
(BTW, there are no food stamps any more. People receiving assistance
get electronic debit cards.)

Which they use to buy groceries to sell at a discount for cash and use
the cash to buy beer. Ain't capitalism wonderful! ;-)

Just because it is possible, doesn't make it likely. Do you have
any actual data that supports your supposition? Or is it more likely
that the vast majority of folks receiving assistence actually need it
and actually use it to buy food so they can spend what little cash they
have on essentials like rent, transportation and toilet paper?

I've no doubt that there are people that abuse AFDC and other
assistance programs. I doubt that the number of those people
is significant on any scale that matters.

Are you serious? The abuse is off the charts!
