you understand that WIC has significant restrictions, yeah?

Uh... yeah. That's exactly why I brought it up. I take it nobody is reading my earlier post, so I'll just quote it:

They should at least do it like the WIC program. Give people paper checks with specific items on them and put all kinds of tedious, arbitrary limitations on what they can buy. Not only would that help prevent wasteful spending and abuse, but it might motivate them to get off the food stamps.

With the bolded part, if EBT were half as tedious and restrictive as WIC, people would have to pay out of pocket for certain food choices and may even decide to use their extra money just to avoid the hassle. The ones that really need and appreciate the assistance wouldn't mind the extra steps.
