It depends on what that family gets. There are sales and things like in season produce that would be cheaper Now, I do realize that some people have diet restrictions unrelated to being picky. I know someone for example who has celiac not being able to have any gluten at all is FAR from cheap.
What on earth are you talking about?
Whatever you got, it sure was neither a point nor a coherent argument. But I give you credit, you sure showed those strawmen who's the boss. But when you actually want to address any of my actual positions, I will be waiting. Congratulations on your victory over whatever it was you were arguing with.
How about poor people who help each other? Where is that in your ethical framework?
Given that all my friends are on SNAP/RMP and we paid cash for the chicken, no crimes were committed. I’m fully aware that I’m not allowed to buy food for other people using my SNAP card who aren’t in my household, it’s a federal crime and you get your benefits cut off.
I bought the olives and vitamin water using my SNAP benefits. They are in normal stacks on the sales floor.
You were clearly arguing with someone, but it sure wasn't me.
I know you paid cash, you explained the chicken wasn't covered. I'm not saying I agree with the thought process that denies you the chicken, just explaining what it is. Zero part of my mind, body, and soul feels it's my business to tell people how to eat. As long somebody isn't being exploited into using their benefits to feed somebody else, I couldn't care less how one spends the money. I cannot overstate how little interest I have in micromanaging people's eating habits.
That gets a little dicier for me because I want to make sure people aren't being exploited or manipulated into spending their money to their own detriment via things like elder abuse or neglect. Groups that are marginalized tend to be preyed upon and if it became easy to trade those benefits, the same people who believe the tax man is coming so buy a gift card, call them back with the number, and you'll avoid jail would find themselves stuck. Without food and potentially ejected from the system for "allowing" a fraud to occur. That I'm not into.
Again, I think it should be covered. You won't hear me say otherwise. I'm fine with any prepared, warm grocery store-made prepared food being EBT eligible.
Gotcha. I thought you meant you were given it by employees or they were available for free on condiment bars. I used to run a loop, snagging unattended free condiments from condiment bars order to save some money. The golden years was when KFC left butter packets out, Dunkin left mini-creamers out, Taco Bell left salsa packets out, and Wendy's left sour cream packets, shredded cheese, and occasionally "bacon" (for baked potatoes) out on their condiment bars by the door. You could walk in, load up, and call it a day. Del Taco used to have lettuce and tomato out to dress the tacos and nachos. McDonalds was always a bust because their condiments were in pump jars.
It doesn’t matter because those choices are going to be restricted which will be good for them.
She was talking about a supposed person with a supposed abnormal condition. I am only bringing that up because I am told that if it cannot be proven or disproven, it cannot be argued and is therefore not worth discussing.
I know, but sometimes I like to play along if I'm bored or something. In this case, that scenario only made it worse.
They need sirens and strobe lights that go off to announce every time an ebt card is swiped.
Or we can just get rid of EBT altogether and bring back the bread lines. That way you know they are only eating approved food.
