EBT card food stamp recipients ransack Wal-Mart stores, stealing carts full of food during federal computer glitch

[link to www.naturalnews.com]

Some key takeaways:

"As it is virtually impossible to retrieve all these stolen items from EBT cardholders, these losses are going to have to be absorbed by either Wal-Mart or the federal government. In either case, other people must burden the cost of the theft."


And

"Why does any of this matter? Because this is exactly the same way these people will behave when the federal government goes into default and nearly 50 million EBT cards stop working nationwide."


This country needs a new blueprint for how to act.

These are the same people who when Katrina blew through , they were using their FEMA cards to buy tvs and game consoles instead of food and housing . Bring on another hurricane as we obviously need a little cleansing

The gov. should pay the stores for their "purchase" and then cut the EBT holders' monthly allotment by half until the amount is paid back.

I just read this on the TEXAS GOP Vote Website. Freaking animals.

They knew better and literally stole all that food.

Scares me to see the mess that happens when the dollar goes.

walmart will get their money, these "thieves" used the card and the amounts on record and will be taken from the next months allotment. I really wish that so called reporters would report without bias. The author of the article didn't bother to report on of his examples ( the lady with over 700.00 in food was declined she got nothing)also reported on by another journalist. Fear mongering, class hatred, jealousy has no place in journalism.
