I work at a grocery store as a cashier and I can tell you that there are WAY too many people on food stamps who don't need them. I had one customer recently who bought $200 worth of porterhouse steaks and crab legs all on an EBT card. That's an extreme example but almost every day I get someone paying EBT for a $20 steak, or a $15 sushi platter, or a $5 pint of Ben & Jerry's, and of course they have cash for beer, wine, cigarettes, and lottery tickets. And this is in a middle class area, I can't imagine the kind of fraud that goes on at stores in poor neighborhoods.
Just trying to parse what you mean in that last sentence there- because you see what you perceive to be fraud in an area where people are comparatively better off, there must be more fraud in an area where people are, from your perspective, "really" struggling?
