Welfare Recipients Take EBT to Disney World and Vegas

[DavenRoxy 1,073]

You just got on welfare, what do you want to do now? Go to Disney World. It’s cold out in Maine, but it’s really warm in Florida, just like back home in Somalia. Leave the polar vortex behind and catch some rays, withdraw some cash and enjoy the good life.

This isn’t an isolated case. More than$69 million in California welfare cash was spent or withdrawn outside of the state between 2007 and 2010. Las Vegas drew the largest sum of $11.8 million.

According to the Heritage Foundation, welfare spending has increased 16-fold since the federal government began the “War on Poverty” in the 1960s. In 2011 it reached $927 billion.

I may not be able to afford to take my family to Disney, but I am darn sure doing my part to ensure that those who won't work get to enjoy their vacation.

Here, in MN, they block EBT cards from being used at Casino's now. Apparently there was quite a bit being pulled out there before the change.

They need to block EBT cards from being used at NASCAR races...

That would halve the cost of the program.

Another awesome one liner that has nothing to do with the thread. I was unable to find any data of ebt being abused on anything Nascar related. Or are you trying to somehow turn this into something it isn't? Or are you just merely trying to up your post count? Edited January 24, 2014 by Merle
