Johnny_Nutcase 07/28/17 5:55:09 AM #5:	Yeah this is all true. EBTs aren't the problem. Look at EBT. You can buy some nasty shit with those and we wonder why this country is in a health care crisis. Then you take a look at all the regulations requiring restaurants to throw out food because it's a liability to give it to hungry people even though it's 99.9% likely to be totally fine.

Ivynn 07/28/17 11:01:14 AM #43:	The Top Crusader posted... I think the majority of people realize that most people using EBT are using it because they need to and don't take significant issue. That being said there is always the minority that should honestly be irritating to anyone who is paying taxes (or anyone using EBT responsibly). I mean, it does kind of suck that my wife and I had to work full time while paying for college and taking classes and scrimping by on cheap food and no significant luxury, but then a single mom can get a free college ride, free food, free childcare, be able to attend college without having to worry scheduling classes and studying around work, etc. Welp, time to become poor since poor people are apparently living the high life. --- http://i.imgur.com/vDci4hD.gif <cite>Ivynn posted [p:883755027] in Why do peo...
