well... it is food....

I've been on food stamps before so I can relate. Not EVERYONE is a leech of society as it was put... my wife is pregnant and I don't have the greatest job due to lack of education. Having food stamps (a benefit that comes out of yours and my tax dollars) is the only reason we're able to make it through the months.

Now if you wanna talk about people who drive fancy cars and have brand new cell phones, tons of jewelry, and 3+ children, yet use food stamps constantly they're the mooches trying to live outside their means. Some people actually NEED help. Others abuse it.

Honestly, I'm more concerned about the five 24-packs of Diet Mountain Dew.

Lobster here in Maine I've seen for $3.49/lb Cheaper than steak or even ground beef.

It's disgusting. I used to work at a supermarket. Every first of every month the same families would come in and spend their $300 of food stamps on crab legs, lobster, and steak. At least with the WIC checks the they're only allowed to buy certain healthy foods.

Currently work at grocery store in MI, can confirm. They eat better than I do. Some of them you can tell have legitimate reasons to be using the stamps. Others...if we forget being PC for a minute, they're the type who are married to some girl because she put out and got pregnant, they spend their free time drinking, and dress like their tastes never evolved beyond what was cool in high school.

edit - Just saw that the receipt says Michigan, wow.
