First, I encourage everyone to be extra alert in the coming days and weeks if the Foodsatmp program remains unfunded due to the shutdown (which is what I understand will happen). There is a percentage, perhaps large, of FS recipients who will resort to crime to satisfy their basic need for food. Personally I hope I can help people out if they are in my path.
Anyway, the bigger point.... Walmart and other food corps will take a big hit. It could cause a ripple effect in the economy, as in Black Swan. In fact, I wonder how long before cabal handlers tell Dems to cave because the impact on large corps is too great.
But, maybe this is the match to light the fire... hunger causes humans to cross lines. Perhaps that is why the NG is deployed, too.
Anyway, just thinking about my Anon community and hoping you, your families and friends stay safe, and that we each discern the role we need to play day by day as this unfolds.
Godspeed.
Thank you for your service.
One of the other scams I've witnessed first hand here in New England was a man using his EBT card at ALDI to purchase 20 loaves of bread, and 10 packets of hot dogs, load them into his car and then drive over to Walmart to possibly do the same thing. The worker at ALDI said that these people sell the food to the local Mom & Pop to make a profit.
They aren't allowed to restrict their purchases even though they are gaming the system.
