"Xringer keeps targeting the poor".. My next target will be women..
I'll call it my
war on women. (Or did somebody already take that name)?
Anyways, back to my war on the poor.. (Those poor people really me the creeps)!
Massachusetts governor's welfare card restrictions would still allow purchases at nail salons and jewelry stores | Fox News
"The Democratic governor kept a provision banning EBT card purchases at places like liquor stores, cruise ships, casinos, firearms dealers and adult entertainment venues. But, Patrick shot down a measure banning the purchase of individual items, like tattoos and guns."
This seems a little strange to even be talking about the fraud in this program, when the Mass EBT cards are actually ATM cards..
Using the Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) Card - Health and Human Services - Mass.Gov
See: 'For a Cash Withdrawal at a Cash Machine (ATM)'
I guess the way Patrick sees it, for every EBT card he gives out is another vote, he's got locked up..
I don't think all the stories about expensive tattoos, or paying the bail of a schoolyard drug dealer is going to hurt Patrick at all..
Anyways, I don't blame those poor people for buying lobster or tats with their EBT card cash.
If I had not been raised in poverty, and didn't believe going on the dole
would have been better than working for low wages,
I might have turned out the same way. Just working the system.
I've known at least a few dozen people who just work the system.
They aren't really bad people. Maybe they're just weak people..?.
