[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You should have called her on it OP and then slapped the crap out of her. Snatched the iphne away from her and took the ebt card. Your tax dollars are paying for them anyway, right? Why wait for Trump? Poor people certainly don't deserve nice things/delicious food at Golden Corral.[/quote]
People who consume goods and services courtesy of the American taxpayers should indeed have restrictions on how they spend our money. The Golden Corral isn't horrible, but really....does she need an IPhone? I myself have to watch my spending and am doing just fine with a lesser brand.

I recently read in the Wash Post of a shelter in DC, and it was following the situation of a young mother with three young children. (No husband.)  All meals were provided, although her two older kids got free breakfast and free lunch at school. But the mother said she didn't like the quality of the free meals at the shelter, so she took her food stamp money and bought groceries. Plus, the article said that many in the shelter not only didn't like the meals served there, they didn't want to buy groceries, so they took their welfare money and ate two or three times a week at a Chinese restaurant across the street.

So let's look at this double and triple cost to taxpayers. We provided food at a shelter. But, we simultaneously provide food stamps for the grocery? And we then, on top of that, provide enough money to eat at a restaurant 3x a week? Look at all the waste. If someone moves into a shelter that provides all meals free, why isn't the food stamp allowance lowered to reflect that? [/quote]
