That, and what they can be used to buy is also pretty lame. I've seen people drive up to a fish store in a Cadillac and then buy very expensive fish using food stamps.

I work at Dunkin' Donuts.

At least four people (out of a total of about a dozen or so) I work with are on food stamps. A few also have medicare.

Hell yeah, pile on, the more the better.

The tipping point will soon be reached and the un-sustainability of the current system will be clear as it all crashes down.

This will just be used as an excuse as to why the "old" system failed and why they need to roll out the "new and improved" system that comes with a 50% tax rate like our successfull neighbors Canada.
