Only
'incoherent,' because you once again dodged the question of your prejudice...and obvious acceptance of subsidizing corporations that pay low wages.
Either that, or because you're too busy yelling with caps...you aren't smart enough to comprehend.
So which is it?

You glossed over my agreement with you about the WORKING poor. My point deals with the LAZY POOR, THE CRIMINAL POOR, THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT POOR, and the MOTHER OF 8 CHILDREN BY 8 DIFFERENT FATHERS POOR. I suppose you think it is "social justice" that millions of "Joe the Plumbers" work their butts off to just scrape by and yet have to support those losers?
BTW, the way you stop the beer, cigarettes and lottery tickets is by eliminating ALL CASH from the hands of public assistance recipients. No EBT cards. You go back to food stamps, except this time at 100% face value, and only good for the categories of food stamped on the coupon. You make it a class B felony to possess food stamps that you are not entitled to, so the resale market dries up. Yes, yes, the left thinks this was "demeaning" that people in the grocery line could see you were using food stamps. Well, too bad, skip the pity party. Those in line are paying for them anyway. What you, economically speaking don't realize, is that it is IMPERATIVE, repeat IMPERATIVE that those on public assistance occupy the very lowest rung of the economic ladder. Otherwise there is no incentive to work, get educated, or better yourself. Who would work if they could enjoy the same lifestyle for free? That's human nature. When FDR started "the dole" in the 30's, it was a SUBSISTANCE living----cold water flat, government surplus cheese and bread line. People would take any, repeat ANY job to get off "the dole". Now , with large screen TVs, computer systems with high speed internet, free cell phones, cars, and a magic EBT card that can even be used in casinos and strip clubs, there is little incentive to change.

While your suggestions on reducing using those cards for things that they shouldn't be used makes sense in some ways (I admit that I am not that familiar with what they can/cannot use them for), you have once again only addressed your stereotype of what you think is the average 'welfare recipient.'
So why don't you show us (with some type of legitimate statistical, not opinion, link) what % of those receiving public assistance, fits into that stereotypical
'lazy/shiftless/mother of 8/etc.' category of yours?
Is it 75%?
50%?
25%?
Less than 10%?
And then what % of those getting that assistance, are actually part of the working poor?
Or are you afraid that it might burst
YOUR little bubble of ignorance and prejudice?

Sorry to burst your ideological bubble, but the rest of us live in the real world. (That's planet Earth, in case you were confused)

LOL
You haven't 'busted' anything of mine, you've simply reinforced my viewpoint that ignorant and nasty people like you and your ilk will develop whatever prejudices necessary...to reinforce your own anger and hatred.
BTW - Aren't you the same (hard to tell, since all you 'guests' sound alike...LOL) jerk who tried to lecture me about leveling
'personal attacks?'
And yet, you were the first to do it in your other post.
Like I've said many times, you flaming hypocrites...crack me the hell up.
Thanks for the guffaws.
