      This is as close to "let them eat cake" as you can get in 2017.https://twitter.com/senatormcdaniel/status/833899894851194881 …

      Welfare (EBT) should be for basic needs, not steaks and escargot. Time for reform.

      When the peasants ran out of bread, Marie Antoinette purportedly said "let them eat cake." (She prolly didn't actually say it but whatever.)

      The point is that assuming peasants can even get cake illustrates disconnect from reality. Sorta like assuming EBT recipients get escargot.

          a friend of a colleague worked an entry-level job at a big private co where he had access to a company card.

          he treated himself + his friends to expensive dinners + treats, totally non-work related. No one checked, or cared.

          but the people buying their kids groceries from 7/11 w food stamps are somehow robbing us? Absolutely absurd.

          at the grocery store I go to you can see the display that says what dollar amount EBT covers and what is not. No toilet paper 😖

          denying fraud and abuse doesn't help in trying to oppose people who want to gut social programs.

          I have a fully side rant about the choice of "escargot" which almost no one eats outside of a very few restaurants.
