Actually, the one who's getting trashed is you.
It's not a loaded question, it's a yes or no question. And like most leftard loons, you resent yes or no questions...because you know what the answer is, but you want to spin it in a way that's contrary to the truth.
You can only buy fast food with your food stamps if you live in Arizona, parts of California, and Michigan. Kentucky was working to allow it also, not sure if it passed yet.
And you have to be elderly, disabled, or homeless.
You cannot withdraw cash from your food stamps. You can withdraw cash if you were given a TANF grant. And that is obvious why. It's hard to pay bills etc.. With your EBT card.
I find this whole discussion about lobster ridiculous. If someone is buying things like lobster with food stamps, it is rare, not a typical thing. If people did that, they'd run out of their food stamps in a week, or in a day even. There will always be people who abuse any system; you don't eliminate the system because of those who may abuse it.
As well, what if people buy junk food with food stamps. What gives Americans, most of whom live on tons of junk food and are over weight, the right to say that only they can do such things, that poor people must be punished for being poor by only eating rice, beans and vegetables? Get a life. The food stamp budget isn't breaking America's back: stupidity is what is doing that.
Stupidity like the vapid tripe you just wrote.
It is not rare. It is prevalent.
Nobody is punishing anyone. It's a program meant to prevent starvation, and as an entitlement program (which means it isn't earned) we can give free food in any manner we choose. If we choose to only provide beans, rice, milk and 10 lbs a meat, we can do that. If people don't like it, they can get their own food.
That's the way it works the best.
The whole idea that people have a *right* to free lobster and ribeye is ridiculous. They don't. If they did, then I would be getting mine as well...
What you are saying is that FOODSTAMP RECIPIENTS have a right to FREE DELICACIES that nobody else can afford.
They don't.
ok... simple question... yes or no.
can you buy lobster with snap?
No, it's a loaded question and one you've already been trashed asking. This is school yard stuff.....I hear you're a respected poster here.....how about getting your game back up to snuff.

can you buy lobster with food stamps/snap?
yes or no.
Sure you can. First you get a list of food items desired by a "friend." You explain to them that you will give them the receipt and they can pay you cash. You go to the store and put the lobster in your cart and the goods that your friend wanted. When you get to the register instead of paying for the goods in your cart with cash you pay for the food with your EBT card, then you use your cash for the lobster. You then drop off the goods at your friends who pays you cash for the items. You keep the lobster.
Result... EBT user's cash is back in her pocket EBT money is gone and lobster is in the pot back at the happy EBT user's home.
Unlikely? Nah, from my memory most of the EBT/Food Stamp users do this. Almost all of them have two sets of purchases at the store. One with a set of EBT illegal items and another set of EBT legal items. Oh these other items are for my "boyfriend" or "neighbor" or "mom"...
Classic shell game.

Hmm, if it is a FACT, lets see some evidence. Surely you can produce tons of evidence of this with all the SNAP people eating lobsters these days. Do they also buy some wine to cook it in, and have a side of caviar?
If you want something to piss and moan about, try the FACT you are subsidizing low wage workers with SNAP from your taxes, while corporations walk away with billions of profits.
Let's put it another way. 1 out of 6 people face hunger. America is not as wealthy as people would like to believe.

Not anymore. I think we rank someone in the top 10 but we are not #1.
If most people on food stamps do not get enough to last the month how are the 45 MILLION PEOPLE ON FOOD STAMPS continuing to survive?its not a loaded question

Most people on food stamps do not get enough to last the month, and can't afford to take advantage of the system.
Why does the right lie about the poor so much?
people who face HUNGER are NEVER obese or overweight.

Chicken can be had for 1.49 a pound for dark meat and 2 bucks a pound for whole chickens. Same for pork and chuck steak. I'm fairly well off but consider 7 a pound to be a ridiculous price compared to chick/pork prices.Actually, the one who's getting trashed is you.

Lobster tails you can since they are seafood. Live lobsters you can not. You can also not buy alcohol.
And as an aside. Lobster tails can be found at the grocery store relatively cheaply....last I priced them was at $ 6.99 lb. That is not any worse than buying chicken, pork or steak.
Talk about a non issue.

According to what I've read: food banks take up the slack. I think what people get for food stamps is probably similar to what people get for minimum wage: just barely enough to get by and in some cases not even that much.

There are a lot of over weight and obese people in America.
There are also people who are hungry. And there are children who go to school hungry. It is helping those who are truly in need that the Food Stamp Program and food banks are all about. If there are those who abuse the system, there is only so much you can do about that: there will always be people who will abuse any system. But we need to be aware that there should not be hungry people in America: it is still, despite what many say, one of the richest, most prosperous countries in the world with a vast number of people who have too much to eat and should not resent the tax dollars spent on those who may not have enough.
Yep. Most of the people I know with families also have to go to the food bank and other charities.If most people on food stamps do not get enough to last the month how are the 45 MILLION PEOPLE ON FOOD STAMPS continuing to survive?Most people on food stamps do not get enough to last the month, and can't afford to take advantage of the system.
